What are the types of genital injuries? For male genitals, the scrotal and testicular regions are vulnerable to some damage, especially from external factors or violent behavior, which can cause great harm to men. Therefore, male friends must pay attention to the protection of the scrotal and testicular regions in life.
The prominent manifestation of scrotal injury is scrotal hematoma, which can be caused by direct external violence or improper hemostasis after surgery.
Due to the abundant blood vessels in the scrotum and the loose skin of the scrotum, the bleeding cannot be suppressed and stopped by itself, so it is easy to form a large hematoma. The manifestations of scrotal hematoma are: rapid enlargement of the scrotum, sometimes dark purple skin, swelling pain, tenderness, and difficulty in walking. The light transmittance test was negative, and liquid dark areas were visible under B-ultrasound. Treatment should include bed rest, reduced activity, and cold compress with ice packs or cold towels. If the hematoma is too large, incision and drainage should be performed to stop the bleeding under direct vision. Surgical procedures should be strictly sterile and attention should be paid to preventing infection. After the hematoma is organized, it can form a hard lump, which should be treated promptly with physical therapy and traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and relieve pain.
The causes of testicular and accessory injuries are often caused by external violence, such as being kicked or crushed during a fight. After testicular injury, local hyperemia, edema, or bleeding can occur, and in severe cases, it can cause complete destruction of the testicle, eventually leading to testicular atrophy, affecting sperm production. Severe testicular pain is the main symptom, and in severe cases, traumatic shock can occur. If there is shock, first rescue the shock, such as pain relief, pressure boosting, fluid replacement, and other anti-shock treatment, lift the affected area, and apply local cold compress. If testicular dislocation occurs, early reduction should be performed, and emergency release should be performed for torsion of the spermatic cord.
Many factors can potentially pose an invisible threat to the health of men's scrotum and testicles, and the most important way to avoid these injuries is to focus on reproductive health care in life, avoid violent behavior, and understand common sense of sexual reproductive health, which is also the best way to protect oneself.
