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 disadvantages of undescended testicles?Doctor's answer:
If it is found that there are no testicles in the scrotum of the child or only one side has testicles, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. In most cases, children around one year old can have their testicles descend into the scrotum with some medication. If the testicles still have not descended into the scrotum by the age of two, surgical treatment should be considered. This condition may be due to phimosis, which refers to the foreskin covering the urethral meatus but can be retracted to expose the urethral meatus and glans penis, often accompanied by balanitis. Phimosis can lead to premature ejaculation. Circumcision can be considered, which can reduce the incidence of penile cancer.
