Does urinating yellow indicate a testicular problem?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have been experiencing yellow urine for the past four to five days and slight soreness near my left testis. Please help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Your symptoms point to a testicular infection called orchitis (inflammation of one or both testicles). In addition, your blood reports (attachment removed to protect patient's identity) show diabetes (a group of diseases that result in too much sugar in the blood).

Orchitis is common in people with diabetes. You will need to take an ultrasound and color doppler for the scrotum. That will confirm if the infection is present. If present, then a course of antibiotics will be needed. For symptomatic relief, take a tablet of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) 500 mg whenever needed. I suggest you consult an endocrinologist for diabetes.

I hope that you get your answer.

Please let me know if you need any help.

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

I also experience a cold sensation in the penis. Please help.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

The cold sensation on your penis is also a part of the infection. Because your urine result does not indicate any urine infection, infection of other body regions, such as the testes and urethra, should be investigated.

The two most important types of care you require are infection control and diabetes management. As previously indicated, you should get a scan for confirmation and consult a urologist (a specialist specializing in urinary tract disorders) for a physical examination.

I hope that you get your answer.

Please let me know if you need any help.

Thank you.
