Patient's question:
I had prostatitis a long time ago, and after a long period of treatment, I have been living a regular life. But recently, I don't know why, I feel a bit swollen and painful in my testicles, and I feel very upset. I want to ask the doctor, what kind of disease is this swollen and painful testicle?Doctor's answer:
Testicular swelling and pain are not symptoms of prostatitis. The causes of testicular swelling and pain are often considered to be due to conditions such as orchitis, testicular tumors, epididymitis, epididymal tumors, varicocele, hydrocele, and other diseases. In this case, patients need to go to a formal hospital's urology department for follow-up visits, undergo a physical examination of the reproductive system, and MRI scans. Based on the examination results, a diagnosis can be made, followed by appropriate treatment.
