How should the treatment be for swollen and painful testicles in children?

Patient's question:

One year and 70 days, it's quite painful, can't be touched, larger on the left, about once every ten days, usually normal.

Doctor's answer:

The child's swollen and red testicles may be related to inflammation, fluid accumulation, or hernia. It is best to go to the hospital for a thorough examination and have a scrotal ultrasound to determine whether it is a hernia or hydrocele. After identifying the cause, treatment should be guided by a doctor. For patients with testicular swelling, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
