Patient's question:
I have balanitis, and the medication has shown significant improvement, but my testicles still hurt. Can a urinalysis detect any issues with the testicles? If so, how can it be done?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is recommended to go to the urology department for a follow-up visit to the hospital. It is best to undergo a color Doppler ultrasound examination to identify the cause, which will also facilitate early symptomatic treatment and resolution. It is essential to drink plenty of water, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and maintain a regular lifestyle. During treatment, if you have a history of sexual activity, it is important to practice abstinence. Testicular inflammation can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a balanced diet during the treatment period.
