By accident, I found that the two testicles are different in size. What's going on?

Patient's question:

Yesterday while taking a bath, I accidentally noticed that the two testicles are of different sizes. The left one is about 4.5 cm, and the right one is about 3.5 cm. The thickness is the same, and there is no sensation of drooping or discomfort. It's just that the left side of the scrotum is slightly higher than the right side. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

How to deal with two types of issues related to unilateral orchitis, considering the possibility of excessive local scraping, compression, and other irritating factors. Do not be anxious or tense. It is advisable to pay attention to personal hygiene, strictly avoid spicy foods and alcohol, prevent overwork and fatigue, and ensure that underwear and pants are appropriately loose to avoid tight compression and other disturbances. Testicles can recover, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
