The health of the genitourinary system is of great importance in the life of a man. Not only the normal fulfillment of physiological functions, but also the man’s ability to conduct sexual life depends on their condition.
The reproductive system of each representative of the stronger sex consists of internal and external organs. The scrotum is a special leathery sac in which the testes are located. It is worth noting that during the formation of the male fetus in the womb, the testicles descend into the so-called scrotum only at the thirty-fifth - seventh week, that is, immediately before the birth itself. It is very important. After all, if this does not happen, a man simply simply can not have his children. The thing is that for the formation of healthy and motile spermatozoa, special conditions suitable for their development are required. The temperature in the scrotum is several degrees lower than the body temperature of a man.
Sometimes this kind of sac, or rather, a person’s testicle swells. It happens all of a sudden. In many situations, a man or a child does not immediately notice such an education. In addition, for this kind of case hardening of this swelling is characteristic, which in itself brings a lot of unpleasant and even sometimes painful sensations. If your testicle is swollen, consult your doctor immediately. He will help find out the cause of the process. The main ones are most often organ looping, hernia, bacterial inflammation, stagnation of sperm, fluid and blood mass and, of course, any scrotal injury.
If the child has a testicle swollen, you should definitely ask him if the baby has fallen, hit or with these organs and the like. Try not to put pressure on the child. Quite often, parents complain to the doctor that the testicle is swollen in the child. In order to avoid this, you need to conduct an examination of the body at least twice a month. Sometimes once a month is enough. It all depends on the age of the guy or man. It is recommended to conduct an examination after or while taking a hot shower or bath. The fact is that from the heat the testicles gradually completely descend into the scrotum. The organ relaxes. In such a situation, it is much easier to detect any formations. In addition, you will need special instructions, because in some areas of the seal - the norm.
If you suspect that the testicle is swollen, lift the penis and gently feel directly the scrotum itself. Pay attention to the size (try to identify changes), to redness and strong expansion of the veins. The left side of the organ, that is, the scrotum, should be located slightly lower than the right.
Be sure to carefully examine each of the testicles. To do this, roll them between your fingers. Do everything carefully so as not to harm the representative of the stronger sex. Normally, the testes are elastic and smooth. At the same time, they move freely.
Less commonly, the fact that the testicle is swollen indicates the development of a cancerous tumor in the organ. Unfortunately, this disease is common in our country. Most often, men at the age of twenty-five to thirty-seven are at risk. The causes of the tumor in this place, more precisely, there are many assumptions. However, the truth has not yet been revealed. It is worth noting that if the mother during pregnancy took any funds with a high content of the so-called diethylbestrol, the likelihood of cancer increases.
Signs that a man has a swollen testicle, most often become edema, decreased sexual activity and pain in this area. Regardless of your assumptions, immediately consult a specialist.
