Patient's question:
Doctor, hello! I am 24 years old. Could you please tell me if my testicles have been feeling uncomfortable recently? Now, the left one is higher than the right one, and I've forgotten if it was like this before. Sometimes it feels a bit swollen, and at other times it feels a bit stretched, but not strongly. I'm very worried. Could you please help me analyze this for me? Thank you. I'm experiencing this sensation on the left side. Could it be prostatitis? Is it very difficult to treat? Please, I'm asking for your help.Doctor's answer:
Hello: There may be a possibility of prostatitis, and a prostatic fluid examination can be done to confirm it. The main symptoms of prostatitis are: frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, perineal pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, perineum, and testicular area. There is often white discharge in the urethra, accompanied by lower back pain, weak knees, impotence, premature ejaculation, and even hematuria or hematospermia. I believe everyone knows that testicular cysts can cause significant harm to patients, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, avoiding irritating foods, and maintaining a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits can be scheduled when necessary.
