Ambrosius - just let it be for now, it could just be the result of an irritation to the skin. if it starts to sting or become swollen however, a quick visit to your doctor can help it go away with some prescription medicine
ReplyDeleteDenisedds - It has nothing to do with cancer if it did you would have no problem paying for the surgery, because it would be so clear to you something was wrong.
ReplyDeleteWhat have is called varicoceles. There are no home remedies. You need to see a urologist.
Shararti - Just like the veins in the leg, the veins that drain blood away from the testicles in the scrotum can become varicose, in which case a varicocele is formed. This feels like a bag of worms at the top of the testicle on the affected side and the veins themselves may be tender to the touch.
ReplyDeleteThe discomfort is of a dragging, aching nature, and wearing a supportive pair of pants or a jock strap will help.
A doctor can distinguish between swollen veins and the normal underlying testicle through an examination. In moderate to severe cases, an operation to remove the varicose veins is curative.
The epididymis or sperm collecting apparatus at the rear of the testicle can sometimes form one or more cysts that may become enlarged and on occasion painful.
Small cysts may hardly be noticed and may resolve without treatment.
Larger ones are often mistaken on self-examination as lumps within the testicle itself. And if they are repeatedly painful despite adequate support, surgical removal is sometimes indicated.
A hydrocele is a bag of clear fluid that collects in a sac around the testicle and may be the result of a direct injury.
Alternatively, it can occur spontaneously in the remnants of an embryonic sac that remains formed around the testicle from birth.
Small hydroceles may hardly be noticed and often resolve without treatment. Larger ones, however, can be drained and the remaining sac removed surgically so it does not reoccur.
Although there are some home remedies but they take a long period to cure.
