Patient's question:
Health consultation description: Male; 16 years old; Left testicular pain for 15 days, hospitalized in a regional hospital for 15 days, received antibiotics. Can it be fully cured? Will there be any sequelae? What should be paid attention to in daily life? Will it affect future fertility?Doctor's answer:
The redness, swelling, heat, and pain in the left testicle should be acute epididymitis. In the acute phase, active treatment is necessary, using antibiotics to suppress inflammation. Taking magnesium sulfate orally can also help reduce swelling and alleviate pain. This condition can be treated and resolved, but it is more likely to completely disappear to its former state. It is possible to leave behind nodules, similar to scars on the skin. If the inflammation leads to epididymal obstruction, it may prevent sperm from being released. However, if the other testicle is normal, it will not interfere with fertility. Currently, Da Huang Zhen Chuang capsules can be used to promote the regression of nodules.
