Which test can find the reason for small testicle?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am currently 26 years old. My testicles used to hang low. I mainly think it was due to over masturbation. Five years back I got water in my testicles. The doctor said that it was due to the balls rubbing while sitting and he gave me medicine. I got well, but my right testicle got small to the size of a peanut, and it has been like this for the past four years. I am worried. I do not feel any pain though.
Please advice.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I think you may have varicocele which are dilated veins of the testis. Varicocele causes small size testis. I suggest you get ultrasound scrotum done. It will give the reason for small size testis.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
I have attached the files. Please have a look on them.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I have seen the images (attachment removed to protect patient identity). By images, it looks like a normal scrotum. The size of the testis could not be determined from outside. For that, you need ultrasound scrotum. If possible, get ultrasound scrotum done.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
