Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 26 years old. I got married to my wife recently, and we have frequent sexual activity. This morning when I went to bed, I felt some pain down there. When I went to the toilet, I noticed a lump in my testicles. It's now red and swollen, and there's a lump in my right epididymis. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Just got married, and the sexual activity is quite frequent. I noticed a lump in the testicles with redness, swelling, and pain. It might be caused by varicocele due to excessive sexual activity, or conditions like orchitis, testicular cyst, or hydrocele. Since the testicles are the site of sperm production and are a vital organ for men, I recommend you go to the hospital as soon as possible for a thorough examination. Once the condition is diagnosed, symptomatic treatment should be administered. During the treatment, sexual activity is strictly prohibited.
