If a man notices slight pain in his testicles, he might feel very anxious, even if the symptoms are mild and it just feels a bit sore. It's actually something that should be taken seriously because it concerns the testicles, which are crucial for male sexuality and fertility.
So, what are the possible reasons for this kind of pain in male testicles? This requires considering the structure of the testicles, which are rich in blood vessels and sensitive nerves, making them very sensitive to external influences. For example, being hit or suffering from inflammation can cause noticeable pain symptoms.
What factors are likely to cause male testicles to be affected both internally and externally?
1、Trauma: Men might not notice damage to their testicles when they suffer external blows, such as during a fight or certain intense sports activities. The symptoms might not be immediately apparent but could gradually manifest afterward.
2、Epididymitis: If the patient has other inflammations, the inflammation could affect the epididymis through blood infection, or the inflammation in the urogenital area could endanger the epididymis along the spermatic cord. If the epididymis becomes inflamed, it could lead to orchitis in men.
3、Varicocele: This condition of the spermatic cord has more obvious symptoms. When the disease occurs, the patient's scrotum will show many "earthworm-like" blood vessels, which look quite fierce. This varicocele affects the blood supply to the testicles and the transport of metabolic waste, causing the patient's testicles to heat up and become more sensitive to pain.
4、Special conditions: Such as acute testicular torsion, which is very dangerous and requires immediate medical attention. Any symptoms in the testicles are worth noting.
Friendly reminder: When pain occurs in the testicles, if the pain does not lessen after an hour, it is important to seek treatment at a professional hospital promptly. One of the ways to cope is to use cold water to dissipate heat and relieve pain (heat compresses are not suitable), and the underwear worn should also be loose and breathable.
