    Testicular pain may be caused by prostatitis or orchitis, but if the testicles can also cause pain after being traumatized, you should go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid affecting male fertility.

    1. Prostatitis

    Prostatitis is a common inflammatory disease in men. Pathogenic bacteria repeatedly stimulate the prostate, causing inflammation of the prostate. Patients with prostatitis will show symptoms such as urgency of urination, lower abdominal pain, fever, testicle pain, etc. Alcoholism, prolonged sitting, and irregular sexual life are all risk factors for prostatitis.

    2. Orchitis

    Orchitis is mainly caused by viral and bacterial infections. Orchitis caused by bacterial infection is relatively rare, mainly because the testicles have a relatively rich lymph fluid and blood supply and are highly resistant to bacteria. Orchitis caused by viruses is relatively common, and patients will show symptoms such as testicular pain, swelling, and high fever.

    3. Trauma

    Because the testicles are relatively hidden, they generally do not suffer trauma. However, if the testicles are accidentally traumatized, it may cause pain in the testicles. If the trauma is serious, the pain will become more severe, and in severe cases it will affect sexual function. If you are injured, you should go to the hospital for examination in time.

    Because the causes of testicular pain are different, the treatment methods are also different. When the pain is severe, you can take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor to have an anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect.
