What is the cause of the enlarged testicle?

There is a very important organ in the male reproductive system, that is the testicle. The testicle has the function of producing sperm, releasing male hormones to maintain secondary sexual characteristics, and is an indispensable organ in our body. However, the testicle is also prone to disease, because the genitals are relatively moist and airtight, so various bacteria will breed and cause inflammation. Sometimes we may find that one side of the testicle is enlarged. At this time, we must pay attention to it, because the testicle may have a disease, and we must go to the hospital for a detailed examination.

One-sided testicular swelling can generally be divided into two types. One is caused by external factors that cause testicular injury, such as improper exercise causing testicular torsion, or violence and other reasons that injure the testicles, resulting in symptoms such as swelling and pain; the other is pathological swelling. Urogenital system diseases can also cause testicular swelling, especially orchitis and epididymitis.

For the first case of testicular swelling, the patient needs to go to the hospital for a specific examination to determine the treatment plan. In the second case, after the diagnosis, since Western medicine treatment is generally difficult to achieve the goal of complete cure, Chinese medicine treatment can be used, such as oral Chinese medicine diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills. In fact, testicular swelling is mostly caused by orchitis or epididymitis in clinical practice.

In addition to testicular enlargement, orchitis and epididymitis are often accompanied by radiating pain in the groin area, scrotal swelling and heaviness, etc. Since these organs are directly related to male fertility, if not treated in time, it is likely to lead to infertility.

In terms of treatment, Western medicine mainly uses antibacterial drugs for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory purposes, but the side effects such as antibiotic resistance are also relatively large. Many patients will relapse after treatment. Although it is effective quickly, most patients are still willing to choose traditional Chinese medicine for safe treatment without side effects.

For the treatment of unilateral testicular enlargement caused by urinary system diseases such as orchitis and epididymitis, Chinese medicine believes that on the one hand, the swelling needs to be eliminated, and on the other hand, the lesion needs to be removed. At this time, drugs that clear away heat and detoxify, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and relieve swelling and pain are needed. Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pills have been confirmed as a good medicine for treatment in many years of clinical treatment. Its effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis can eliminate the pain associated with testicular enlargement and kill various pathogens at the same time; its effect of relieving swelling and relieving pain can restore the enlarged testicle to normal size.

In addition, for patients, the process of taking medicine is also a process of regulating the body. The drugs such as Houttuynia cordata in the formula can enhance the patient's immune function and achieve the effect of treating both the symptoms and the root cause. The effect is very significant.

In addition to excluding external factors, unilateral testicular enlargement is often considered to be caused by urinary system diseases. The testicle is an important male reproductive organ, so it is very likely to cause infertility. Patients are advised to pay attention to it.

When one side of the testicle is swollen, we must pay attention to it. Serious testicular diseases such as orchitis and epididymitis may occur. Moreover, because the testicle is a very important reproductive organ, if it becomes sick, it may affect our reproductive and sexual abilities, and have a great impact on the couple's life and future childbearing.
