What should I do if my testicles are broken?

Patient's question:

Yesterday, while fighting in a group, I didn't know who kicked me in the testicles. At the time, the pain was so intense that I fell to the ground and couldn't get up. An ambulance took me away, and only at the hospital did I find out that my testicle was broken. It felt like the sky had fallen on me. All I could think about was, what should I do now that my testicle is broken? Can I still have children?

Doctor's answer:

This depends on the specific condition of the injury. If it is truly as you said that it is completely shattered, and if there is still tissue inside, it may lead to pus formation and infection again, which would require surgery to remove it. If it is only an injury, antibiotics can be used to prevent inflammation and infection, and blood circulation treatment can be administered while closely monitoring the situation. In this case, the psychological trauma may still have the potential to recover on its own. The worst-case scenario is that the testicle on this side becomes non-functional and needs to be removed. However, as long as the other testicle is normal, it will still be possible to have children in the future.
