1, self-checking method
Testis is the male internal reproductive organ, the processing factory of sperm and androgen, and the engine of male desire. Testicles are very sensitive to the environment and prone to various problems, so men should pay attention to the self-examination of testicles.
First of all, the testicles should be examined from the birth of a boy, so that diseases such as cryptorchidism can be found early, which needs to be completed under the guidance of a doctor. Secondly, under normal circumstances, the testicles of boys grow rapidly from112 years old to 18 years old, and basically mature, completing normal puberty development. If the testicular volume does not increase after 12 years old, it is necessary to seek medical advice in time to rule out the possibility of delayed puberty. Finally, it is suggested that testicular self-examination should be carried out once a month from the age of 15, so as to know the size, shape and touch of testis at any time and find diseases such as tumors early.
The best time for self-examination is after bathing, when the scrotal skin is looser and easier to check.
Specific techniques: take a standing position, make the scrotum droop naturally, hold the scrotum with your palm, and observe and appreciate its size and weight. Hold the testicles gently with your hands, with your thumb in front of them and your forefinger and middle finger behind them. Turn the testis gently with your index finger and thumb to check its size, smooth surface, lump and tenderness, and pay attention to the difference between the left and right testicles. If there is an abnormal lump, you should be vigilant and consult a male doctor as soon as possible.
2, testicular hygrosis
1, prostatitis
The most common cause of testicular wetness is prostatitis. If you are a patient with prostatitis, don't worry, because testicular humidification is caused by autonomic nervous dysfunction of prostatitis. As long as you go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment of prostatitis, with the improvement of prostatitis, the phenomenon of testicular humidification will gradually disappear. If you don't have prostatitis, you should check whether there are other reasons.
2, varicocele
Some men will also have wet testicles and odor, for many reasons. Wet testicles with peculiar smell means that the scrotal skin surface has no change, but there are abnormal feelings such as peculiar smell, dampness or chills, which is one of the typical symptoms of chronic prostatitis. The testicles caused by varicocele are moist and smelly. What needs to be reminded here is that if the testis is wet due to varicocele, it will affect the ability of testis to produce sperm, lead to testicular hypoxia, and the metabolites of adrenal gland will return to the testis. The pain in the root of Tintin and the functional changes of the whole hypothalamus, pituitary and testis may also be the cause of infertility caused by varicocele. Therefore, the testicles are wet, which is probably a symptom of infertility.
3, testicular torsion
This situation is more common, usually occurring a few hours before strenuous activity or testicular external force attack. Sudden appearance of severe testicular pain during sleep or quiet is the first symptom of the disease, which is also one of the main diagnostic criteria. Some patients were accompanied by nausea and vomiting, scrotal swelling and obvious tenderness.
