Can you drive after testicular puncture?

Patient's question:

I need to have a testicular biopsy at the hospital tomorrow. My wife is working and cannot take time off, and I also feel that she doesn't need to accompany me. I plan to go by car myself, but can I take a car after the testicular biopsy? If it has an impact, I will take a ride to the hospital.

Doctor's answer:

After testicular puncture, you can take a ride in a car. Testicular puncture is also a very minor surgery, usually taking only a few minutes to complete. After the procedure, it is recommended to rest for a few days and avoid strenuous exercise. However, riding in a car is not affected. You may consider using some padding to reduce pressure on the testicle. Some people may experience pain, and they can also take anti-inflammatory medication orally or apply cold compresses to alleviate it.
