    Testicular ptosis is usually caused by physiological reasons, urethritis, prostatitis and other factors. Targeted improvement measures can be taken according to the specific reasons.

    1. Physiological reasons

    The outside of the male testicles is called the scrotum. Usually when the body temperature rises or is exposed to a high temperature environment for a long time, the scrotum will relax, leading to testicular sagging. This is a natural phenomenon and does not require special treatment.

    2. Urethritis

    If men do not pay attention to personal hygiene or have an unhealthy sex life, the urethra will be infected by gonococcal viruses, causing urethritis, and symptoms such as painful urination, local redness and swelling will occur. The scrotum will be stimulated by inflammation, which will lead to testicular ptosis. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can take oral penicillin V potassium tablets, metronidazole tablets, cefixime tablets and other drugs.

    3. Prostatitis

    Men suffer from prostatitis. Usually prostatitis will induce symptoms of local discomfort in a large area, such as testicular swelling, sagging, pain and other symptoms. You can use potassium permanganate of appropriate concentration for flushing, and cooperate with the doctor's oral medication treatment, such as doxycycline hydrochloride enteric-coated capsules, levofloxacin tablets and other drugs.
