Can Seminal Vesiculitis Cause Testicular Enlargement?
Generally speaking, seminal vesiculitis does not directly cause testicular enlargement, and its main symptoms are frequent urination, urgent urination, pain, blood sperm, and so on. But if the inflammation of the seminal vesicle site spreads to the testis and epididymis site, causing orchitis and epididymitis, there may be a pain in the testis site and swelling of the scrotum and other discomforts.
What else might cause testicles to swell?
There are many reasons of testicles swell. It is necessary to determine the cause of testicular enlargement through physical examination and laboratory tests based on the patient's symptoms to diagnose testicular enlargement. The causes of testicular enlargement mainly include the following aspects:
First, trauma. Trauma leads to the rupture of blood vessels in the scrotal wall or tunica albumen, resulting in hematoma, which can lead to testis enlargement. For such patients, surgical debridement is generally used.
Second, testicular tumors. These patients usually have painless testicular enlargement. Physical examination, blood tests, and imaging tests can be used to identify the cause.
Third, inflammation. Common causes include viral and bacterial infections. In addition, mumps virus or Escherichia coli are common sources of infection. At the same time, related diseases need to be identified.
