Swollen testicle on one side

For male friends, if you have testicular swelling, you must take it seriously. If it is not caused by external force, it is likely that the testicles are inflamed.

The testis is located in the scrotum, one on each side, and the left side is generally 1 cm lower than the right side. The testis is slightly flattened oval with a smooth surface, divided into inner and outer sides, front and back edges, and upper and lower ends. The front edge is free; the back edge has blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels entering and exiting, and is in contact with the epididymis and the testicular part of the vas deferens. The upper end and the back edge are attached to the epididymis head, and the lower end is free. The outer side is convex and the inner side is flat. The testis grows rapidly with sexual maturity, and shrinks and becomes smaller with the decline of sexual function in old age.

Orchitis: Antibiotics should be used for treatment and relevant symptomatic treatments should be taken according to the type of disease.

The testicle is the main male sex organ. Its function is to produce sperm, which combines with the egg to form a new individual, thus ensuring the continuation of the human race. In addition, it also secretes male hormones, which can stimulate sperm production and the development of male accessory organs and secondary sexual characteristics. Therefore, testicular diseases caused by congenital developmental disorders or acquired factors can lead to infertility.
