Is it necessary to fix the testicles after torsion?

Patient's question:

Because of many external forces, my testicles twisted and it hurts so much that I have been lying in bed recently. When my colleague came to visit me, they suggested I go to the hospital to get it fixed. I don't really want to go to the hospital, so I want to know if it is necessary to have it fixed after testicular torsion?

Doctor's answer:

Severe cases must be treated with fixation. The common causes of testicular torsion include congenital vas deferens, excessive sexual activity after intense exercise, and overfatigue, all of which can lead to it. To prevent the disease, it is necessary to take preventive measures against the above triggers, and avoiding them as much as possible can help reduce the recurrence of the disease. If it occurs again, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and have a thorough examination of the specific situation. If it is severe, surgery may be required to correct it.
