Testicular Health

If you’re experiencing testicular pain, swelling, or have noticed any changes in your testicles, it’s important to seek professional medical evaluation. Board-certified urologist Dr. [Name] provides expert care for all testicular health conditions, helping men find relief and maintain their wellbeing.

Testicular Cancer

Testicular cancer is highly treatable when caught early. While it can cause anxiety and concern, modern treatment approaches offer excellent outcomes. You may have testicular cancer if you notice:

• A painless lump or swelling in either testicle
• A change in how your testicle feels
• A dull ache in your lower abdomen or groin
• A sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum

Early detection and treatment are crucial for the best outcomes. Dr. [Name] offers comprehensive cancer care, including advanced surgical techniques and post-treatment support to help you maintain your quality of life.

Testicular Pain

Many men experience testicular pain at some point, and while it can be concerning, there are effective treatment options available. Testicular pain can be caused by various conditions, including infection, injury, or underlying medical conditions. Getting a proper diagnosis is essential for appropriate treatment.

Spermatocele

A spermatocele is a fluid-filled cyst that develops near the testicle. While many men with spermatoceles don’t require treatment, you might need medical intervention if you experience:

• Noticeable swelling above the testicle
• Discomfort or heaviness in the scrotum
• Concern about fertility

Dr. [Name] can evaluate your condition and recommend appropriate treatment options, from monitoring to minimally invasive procedures.

Hydrocele

A hydrocele occurs when fluid builds up around the testicle, causing painless swelling. While common in newborns, adult men can develop hydroceles due to injury or inflammation. Treatment may be necessary if:

• The swelling becomes uncomfortable
• The size interferes with daily activities
• There’s associated pain or pressure

Testicular Torsion

Testicular torsion is a medical emergency requiring immediate attention. If you experience sudden, severe testicular pain, especially with:

• Swelling
• Nausea or vomiting
• Lower abdominal pain
• Fever

Seek emergency care immediately. Quick action is essential to prevent permanent damage.
