Patient's question:
The sharp area behind the testicles has been for about a month, sometimes it hurts and sometimes it doesn't. Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
Recurring discomfort in the testicles, such as a dull ache, suggests the possibility of orchitis or epididymitis. It is recommended to have a testicular and epididymal ultrasound performed at a hospital. If the diagnosis confirms orchitis or epididymitis, antibiotics such as cephalosporins and quinolones can be prescribed under the guidance of a physician.During treatment, maintain a light diet, avoid unhealthy sexual habits, and refrain from frequent sexual activity. Testicular conditions tend to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should immediately seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital, with treatment decisions based on examination results.
Furthermore, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, as well as pay attention to personal hygiene.
