What is left testicle droop?

Left testicular ptosis may be a normal physiological phenomenon, and may also be related to varicocele, orchiepididymitis and other diseases. If accompanied by other symptoms or abnormal degree of ptosis, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly. Left testicular ptosis may be a normal physiological phenomenon, and may also be related to varicocele, orchiepididymitis and other diseases. The following are some possible reasons: 1. Physiological factors: Temperature changes: The scrotum temperature needs to be kept within an appropriate range to ensure normal testicular function. When the ambient temperature drops, the scrotum contracts, allowing the testicles to rise closer to the body to reduce heat loss; when the ambient temperature rises, the scrotum relaxes, allowing the testicles to fall to increase heat dissipation. This temperature regulation mechanism is a normal physiological response. Crestor reflex: The cremaster reflex is a reflex activity that occurs when an external stimulus (Such as cold, pain, etc.) When acting on the scrotum, it will cause contraction of the cremaster muscle and make the testicles rise. This reflex activity is also a normal physiological reaction. 2. Disease factors: varicocele: abnormal expansion, elongation and tortuosity of the varicocele's internal tendril venous plexus, which can lead to left testicular ptosis, accompanied by scrotal swelling, pain and other symptoms. Varicocele may affect testicular blood supply and temperature regulation, which in turn affects sperm production and quality. Orchididymitis: inflammation of the testis or epididymis can lead to local redness, pain, and may also cause testicular ptosis. Other: testicular tumors, hydrocele and other diseases may also cause testicular ptosis. If there are other symptoms of left testicular ptosis, such as pain, swelling, fever, etc., or the degree of ptosis is obviously abnormal, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for detailed examination and diagnosis. The doctor may perform physical examination, ultrasound examination, etc. to determine the cause of testicular ptosis and give appropriate treatment. In addition, for some special groups, such as children, adolescents, the elderly, etc., the cause and treatment of testicular ptosis may vary. For example, newborn testicles may ptosis for a period of time after birth, which is a normal physiological phenomenon, but if they do not decline for a long time, further examination and treatment may be needed. Old people's testicular drop may be related to testicular atrophy, varicocele, etc. In short, left testicular drop may be a normal physiological phenomenon, but also may be a manifestation of disease. If there is doubt about testicular drop, it is best to consult a doctor for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
