Men's egg pain is actually a term for testicular disease. Egg pain and calmness are also popular terms on the internet, but can real egg pain calm down? What are the types of testicular diseases that cause egg laying pain?
There are several classifications of testicular diseases:
1、 Orchitis
Testicular swelling, pain, fever, and sometimes chills. Patients with orchitis should be treated as soon as possible to avoid "egg pain".
2、 Testicular agenesis
This disease can be caused during the embryonic period by impaired blood supply or torsion of the spermatic cord during testicular descent. Cryptorchidism, sexual infantilism, and hypopituitarism are also common causes of this disease. Unilateral testicular dysplasia may not require treatment due to compensatory hyperplasia of the contralateral testicle, while patients with cryptorchidism should receive early surgical treatment.
3、 Testicular hyperplasia
Testicular hyperplasia refers to the compensatory hyperplasia of the opposite testicle when the testicle is larger than normal, but its hardness and local anatomical relationship are normal. It is common when one testicle is absent or stunted. Generally, no special treatment is required.
4、 Ectopic testis
"When the testicle descends from the inguinal canal, it may not fall into its normal position within the scrotum, leading to ectopic testicles.". Ectopic testis is rare, and its clinical significance and treatment principles are generally the same as those of cryptorchidism. If the diagnosis is clear, surgical treatment should generally be considered, as androgen therapy is generally ineffective. Testicular immobilization as early as possible before puberty can usually restore normal testicular function.
5、 Cryptorchidism
Under normal circumstances, during the late stages of fetal development within the genital tract, the testicles descend into the scrotum. However, approximately 3% of full-term male infants and 30% of premature male infants develop cryptorchidism (undescended testicles). "Most of these infants have testicles that can descend into the scrotum within a few months of birth, but about 0.8% of male infants have not yet descended into the scrotum one year after birth, resulting in the formation of cryptorchidism.".
