Testicles are enlarged but not painful

It is well known that once the testicles become enlarged or have other abnormalities, it indicates that there may be some bad symptoms in the male reproductive organs. It is very likely a signal of reproductive organ disease, and it is usually accompanied by pain. So is it normal if the testicles become larger but not painful? Under what circumstances will a man's testicles become larger but not painful? If this happens, how should men deal with it? This article will tell you the answer.

The enlargement of male scrotum is due to hydrocele. So what is hydrocele? Hydrocele is a disease caused by excessive and unabsorbed plasma in the testicular sac caused by tissue lesions. It is very harmful to male health and fertility, and can also cause psychological diseases in men due to the impact on sexual life. In addition to draining the fluid, its treatment should also find out the cause of hydrocele and treat the primary disease accordingly to achieve the effect of fundamental cure.

So what are the causes of hydrocele in men? Surgeons point out that there are four main causes of hydrocele:

(1) Infection is also the most common cause of hydrocele. Invasion of tuberculosis, gonorrhea and various non-specific bacteria can cause acute and chronic epididymitis, orchitis, spermatic cord inflammation, and hydrocele. Parasitic infections such as filariasis, which are prevalent in tropical regions, can also damage the lymphatic drainage of the tunica vaginalis, spermatic cord and scrotum, leading to hydrocele.

(2) A significant number of patients with injuries have a history of scrotal trauma, so this is another common cause. In addition, many surgical procedures in the abdomen, groin area, and scrotum may also stimulate the spermatic cord and damage lymphatic vessels, causing fluid accumulation.

(3) Tumor: If cancer occurs in the testicles, epididymis, tunica vaginalis, spermatic cord, etc. and invades the tunica vaginalis, it may lead to increased secretion and exudation or blockage of the lymphatic system, resulting in effusion.

(4) Systemic diseases Some systemic diseases can cause systemic tissue edema or ascites, such as heart and kidney failure, liver disease, etc., which cause water and sodium retention, circulatory stagnation, lymphatic obstruction, etc. They can also lead to the appearance of effusion. In addition, benign scrotal diseases such as testicular torsion, testicular appendage torsion, spermatic cord varicocele, etc. can also induce hydrocele.
