"How painful is the egg pain? Count the diseases that hurt men.

The pain of egg pain is equivalent to breaking 3200 bones?

There has always been a saying on the Internet: Generally speaking, normal people can bear 45del (unit) of pain. However, when a woman gives birth to a child, the pain she has to bear is 57 del. Simply put, it looks like 20 broken bones. If a man is kicked in the balls, the pain is 9000del, which means giving birth to 160 children or breaking 3200 bones at the same time. Many women say this statement is too exaggerated. We have no culture to bully!

Although women can't feel the taste of egg pain, men will use personal experience to describe it: the moment of "laying eggs" is very short, but it breaks their hearts. From football players, you can feel the first reaction of men when danger strikes. In the face of vigorously shooting football, they often do not protect their heads and chests, but invariably protect "Tintin". It can be seen that this part is the most sensitive and fragile place for men!

As we all know, testis is the most important part of male reproductive organs, as the most important part of producing androgen and the only organ producing sperm, so its position in evaluating male fertility is self-evident. In the andrology clinic, many patients take "egg pain" (scrotal pain) as the first symptom. They often look frightened and often think about the terrible result of "childless" in their minds.

Apart from physical injury, what other diseases can cause testicular pain, and what other diseases can cause "egg pain"? Can "egg pain" really cause serious consequences of infertility?

In fact, what we usually call "egg pain" is not all caused by the testis itself. Pathological changes of accessory gonads and their surrounding tissues such as epididymis, prostate and spermatic cord can also cause scrotal pain. The common ones are as follows.

1. Epididymitis

Epididymis clings to the upper and posterior margin of testis, which is an organ that temporarily stores sperm and matures it. Epididymis and testis are a pair of "he is my brother", and both of them are often complicated with infection, collectively known as epididymitis, which is a common cause of "egg pain". According to the course of disease, it is divided into acute and chronic inflammation.

1) acute epididymitis

Symptoms: Most patients are caused by bacterial infection, which often occurs on one side. At first, it is characterized by rapid swelling of one scrotum accompanied by pain, radiating to the ipsilateral groin and lower abdomen, which may be accompanied by high fever, chills, nausea, vomiting and other related digestive tract symptoms. It may also be caused by a virus. Mumps virus is common, with fever and headache as the first symptoms. After 7- 10 days, parotid gland swelling and scrotal swelling and pain appear. Bilateral viral orchitis is the most harmful to spermatogenic cells, and it is a common factor leading to infertility, so it is necessary to see a doctor in time.

Treatment: In addition to antibiotics or antiviral drugs, acute epididymitis can also be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, such as Huangxi pills, Xinhuang tablets and other drugs for clearing away heat and toxic materials, reducing swelling and resolving hard mass.

2) Chronic epididymitis

Symptoms: large variation. Patients may have no obvious symptoms, local discomfort, swelling or pain, and sometimes acute attacks.

Treatment: Traditional Chinese medicines that can promote qi circulation and relieve pain, such as fennel orange pills, can be used.

2. Testicular torsion

Testicular torsion is the first emergency in andrology. If you don't pay attention to it, you may face the fate of "reluctantly giving up what you love". Although it can occur in people of all ages, it is more common among teenagers aged 12 to 19.

Symptoms: Patients usually have a history of strenuous activity before onset, and usually have sudden and severe testicular pain during sleep or quiet. Some people may be accompanied by nausea and vomiting, scrotal swelling, obvious tenderness and even syncope.

Treatment: Once the patient with testicular torsion is suspected or can't be ruled out, he should seek medical attention immediately, "cherish time as life" and reset and fix as soon as possible to save the testis and protect the spermatogenic function. Generally speaking, patients with testicular torsion are treated by doctors within 6 hours, and the testicular rescue rate can be as high as 80%. Unfortunately, the rate of saving testicles after 24 hours is only 20%. At this time, even if the testis can be preserved, the function of the affected testis is often damaged.

3. Testicular injury

Symptoms: The testes and accessories of normal men are located in the scrotum, with loose tissue structure and great fluidity. In addition, there is a tough capsule outside the testis, which is generally not easy to be damaged. But because ...

Solution: Once a similar situation occurs, don't delay. You should go to a nearby hospital at once. Correct treatment is the best way to reduce the damage to the "lifeblood".

Prevention: According to the research, 16.8% infertile men have obvious testicular damage in adolescence. It can be seen that acute testicular injury is not only "pain now, pain now", but also has an immeasurable impact on men in the future. Therefore, the protection of testis in adolescence is particularly important.

4. Prostate inflammation

Symptoms: Chronic prostatitis is also a kind of "egg pain" that can cause men. Patients usually have swelling pain in perineum and prostate, which can lead to serious anxiety. These pains mainly come from the habitual contraction and spasm of pelvic muscles, and the reflex pain caused by the nerves that dominate the prostate is also an important reason. If the pain in testicles and other parts is obvious, it usually means that the prostate is seriously infected and there are a lot of bacteria or other microorganisms. Therefore, testicular pain, a patient with chronic prostatitis, should obviously consider the existence of infection.

In addition, prostatic fluid accounts for about 30% of semen, and the fibrinolytic enzyme contained in it can liquefy the injected semen and make the sperm sprint forward to find and combine with their "lover" egg No.3354; Acid phosphatase is related to sperm motility and metabolism, while zinc can provide energy for sperm and help sperm combine with eggs. However, in chronic prostatitis, the secretory function of prostate is affected, and the secretion of active substances is reduced, which leads to the non-liquefaction of semen and the decline of sperm vitality, which will lead to infertility or a decline in pregnancy rate.

Treatment: Chinese medicine has certain advantages in treating prostatitis. For obvious pain, you can add some drugs to promote blood circulation and relieve pain, such as Rhizoma Corydalis and Fructus Toosendan. At the same time, we should pay attention to avoiding colds and sedentary. Glauber's salt, Flos Chrysanthemi Indici, Cortex Phellodendri and Lignum sappan can be used for sitz bath every night before going to bed. The temperature shall not exceed 42℃ within 15 minutes. Note that the unborn should not take a bath.

5. Varicocele

Varicocele refers to the obstruction of spermatic vein reflux or venous valve failure. Blood reflux leads to the elongation, expansion and distortion of spermatic vein plexus.

Symptoms: this disease is more common in adolescent patients. The main symptoms are scrotal swelling, local swelling and pain, and fatigue is aggravated after standing for a long time. These symptoms will be relieved or disappeared after lying flat, and some patients may be complicated with neurasthenia and sexual dysfunction. If the lesion is mild, it may be asymptomatic. Venous reflux caused by congenital valveless spermatic vein or venous valve insufficiency is the main cause of this disease. Clinically, the incidence rate on the left side is significantly higher than that on the right side, accounting for about 80% of the total.

This disease may lead to male infertility. This is because the testicular blood flow is not smooth, venous blood stays, and the scrotum temperature is 0.6-0.8 higher than that of the healthy side. This will lead to testicular hypoxia and carbon dioxide accumulation, which will lead to the increase of metabolites in the local blood of testis, the delamination of spermatogenic epithelium, the disorder of spermatocytes and sperm cells, and the final result will be the progressive reduction or even loss of sperm number, abnormal morphology, low vitality and failure.

Treatment: For mild varicocele, the clinical symptoms are not obvious, especially for unmarried young people or married people with normal fertility. For those with severe symptoms, obvious varicose veins or pain that cannot be relieved by non-surgical treatment, surgical treatment can be performed. Surgery can obviously relieve scrotal pain, but the effect of improving semen quality is related to the degree of varicose veins.

Prevention: The prevention of this disease can guide patients to avoid strenuous exercise and physical labor, keep their stools unobstructed, eat properly and have regular sexual life.

Then, after learning about all kinds of "egg pain", can female friends better understand why their partners care so much about their balls? No matter what kind of disease causes the pain, you should seek medical attention in time!
