Patient's question:
The left testicle has been painful for two days, with mild tenderness. There is varicocele. Since today, the pain in the left testicle has been increasing, and I have noticed that it has shifted horizontally. Could this be testicular torsion?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned is likely caused by varicocele-induced pain, or it may be accompanied by orchitis. It is recommended to promptly visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination to diagnose the cause in a timely manner and receive symptomatic treatment as soon as possible. Additionally, patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
