What are the reasons for redness and swelling of children's testicles

Patient's question:

I recently don't know what's going on, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. What are the causes of red and swollen testicles in children?

Doctor's answer:

Your 5-year-old son is suffering from left epididymitis, and the acute inflammation has been largely relieved after the administration of antibiotics. The left epididymis remains slightly enlarged, indicating that the inflammation has not been completely eliminated. It is recommended to continue using anti-inflammatory medication for another 3 to 5 days and to supplement with traditional Chinese medicine that promotes blood circulation and resolves blood stasis to accelerate the regression of the swelling. This is to prevent any potential impact on future fertility.
As everyone knows, assisted reproductive technologies can cause significant harm to men. Therefore, it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary habits, with a focus on light and nutritious foods, avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
