Patient's question:
The child is three years old. While feeding, I noticed that he has not fully descended on one side of his testicle. Is this considered cryptorchidism? Can he still have surgery at the hospital at three years old? How can the treatment for one testicle be fully cured?Doctor's answer:
According to your current condition, the main issue is cryptorchidism, which has caused one testicle to fail to fully ascend. This situation is often directly related to congenital growth and development. It is recommended to promptly visit a hospital for a detailed ultrasound examination of the testicles to further clarify the issue. If cryptorchidism reoccurs, it is advisable to consider timely surgical intervention. Generally, after surgery, the testicle may ascend again.
