    Slight swelling and pain in the testicles may be caused by friction from clothes, trauma, orchitis, etc. You can go to the hospital for examination to determine the cause and provide symptomatic treatment.

    1. Clothes friction

    If the material of the patient's pants is relatively hard or the pants are too tight, it may cause friction damage to the testicles during walking, causing swelling and pain. Generally, no special treatment is needed. Symptoms can be relieved by choosing loose and comfortable cotton pants.

    2. Trauma

    If the testicles are impacted or squeezed, it will cause soft tissue edema and swelling and pain. Cold compresses, hot compresses, massage, etc. can be used to promote the elimination of hematoma and relieve symptoms.

    3. Orchitis

    If you do not pay attention to the hygiene of your private parts, bacterial infection may occur, leading to inflammation and swelling of the testicles. You can use ribavirin tablets, azithromycin dispersible tablets, cefuroxime axetil tablets and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

    In addition to the above common causes, it may also be caused by varicocele, and you can go to the hospital for further detailed examination and treatment.
