Problematic Prostate
The prostate gland is responsible for the fluid that transports sperm. When the prostate is inflamed (prostatitis) either from infection or injury, swelling and inflammation may cause pain in the testicular area. This condition may be confirmed by a doctor and infections are treated with antibiotics.7‘What You Need to Know About Prostatitis.’ Urology Care Foundation, www.urologyhealth.org/healthy-living/care-blog/2019/what-you-need-to-know-about-prostatitis
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition among older males. The prostate gland grows rapidly, causing pressure on the bladder and urethra, giving the sensation of needing to urinate but being unable to do so.8Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).’ Urology Care Foundation, www.urologyhealth.org/urology-a-z/b/benign-prostatic-hyperplasia-(bph)
