Patient's question:
Please check if the testicles are normal? There's no discomfort, so I just want to take a look. Additionally, I rode a bike yesterday and today. After riding today, I just noticed some slight swelling and pain in the penis, which has now improved but still feels a bit tender, though not as severe as before. I often ride a bike, especially when the weather is good, covering 50-60 kilometers, sometimes up to 100 kilometers. How can I protect the penis and testicles? I'm wearing a high-end cycling shorts, and the protective measures are quite adequate. Is this serious?Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is some pain and discomfort in the testicles, and the external appearance is normal. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for a few scrotal color Doppler ultrasound examinations to check if there is varicocele, as testicular conditions can be prone to recurrence and may require long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek medical treatment in professional and regular hospitals and consider treatment based on detailed examination results. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
