Enlarged testicles with a feeling of heaviness or pain when walking - what should I do?

Patient's question:

Enlargement of the testicles for a long time has caused a sense of heaviness and pain when walking, and there is some pain when urinating with effort. About a year and a half ago, I had epididymitis. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

On one side, the testicle feels more pronouncedly lower, and you can feel a soft mass resembling a worm on the upper part of the testicle with your hand? If this is the case, you may have varicocele, and it's best to go to the hospital for diagnosis immediately. This condition can lead to insufficient nourishment for the testicle, interfere with sperm production, and may affect fertility. For patients with testicular swelling, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications, but if left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and appropriate treatment, and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
