Patient's question:
Left testicular necrosis. The attending doctor suggested cauterization, but could it be an option to avoid cauterization and instead receive anti-inflammatory injections to allow it to gradually swell? Will it affect the other side? I am seeking advice from the doctor.Doctor's answer:
The infection of the testicle has already made no sense to the impact on physiological functions. Surgery is required to cauterize it. If surgery is not performed, if it becomes inflamed or develops something that causes inflammation again, and if it leads to cancer in the future, it will be troublesome, so it needs to be removed. The testicle can be relieved, but the general treatment time is usually long, and it is prone to relapse after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, not smoke or drink beer, and hope that the male patient can recover as soon as possible!
