Detailed Medical History and Physical Examination
We begin by understanding your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle factors. A physical examination helps identify swelling, tenderness, or abnormalities in the testicles and surrounding areas.Diagnostic Tests
Depending on your symptoms, we may recommend:- Ultrasound: To check for structural abnormalities, blood flow, or masses in the testicles.
- Urine and Blood Tests: To identify infections or other underlying conditions.
- STI Testing: If an infection is suspected.
- CT Scan or MRI: In cases of referred pain or complex conditions.
Customized Treatment Plan
Based on the diagnosis, we provide tailored treatment options, which may include:- Medications: Antibiotics for infections, pain relievers, or anti-inflammatory drugs.
- Surgical Intervention: For conditions like testicular torsion, varicocele, or hernias, surgery may be required to alleviate pain and prevent complications.
- Lifestyle Modifications: Advice on rest, wearing supportive underwear, or avoiding activities that worsen the pain.
- Counseling and Support: For chronic pain or psychological stress related to testicular discomfort.
