Withdrawn testicles - Men's Health Message Board

KMFDM · 10-17-2009, 03:26 AM

When I was a child, I had loose skin on my scrotum and I had some of it cut in an operation, don't know details. In the summer, my testicles tend to hang normally but during a cold weather, especially after arriving home, they are withdrawn, sometimes terribly. Having this condition causes me a lot of depression, the feeling is unbearable. In the cold weather, just having a hot bath, ejaculating or just having an erection can help temporarily. Anything I could do?

I think this is a question for a doctor familiar with that type of surgery, and not well meaning but untrained people on the internet. Best of luck with this.

Just excess skin that seemingly at that young age interfered with penis growth. Anyway, am I the only one who has such an issue caused by low body temperature? At the recruitment, when doing all the medical examinations, at one stage they had 20 of us stay in a semi-circle naked in front of the doctor and doing all sort of movements, it was cold and I was the only one like that. Today I'm starting to have some sort of fever and my testicles look normal.

You should definately talk toba physician, and I would suggest talking to a Urologist if you can. I'm no expert,but its my opinion that if you see a connection between your retreating testes, a long ago performed surgical procedure and current complications including a fever (normally this indicates an infection somewhere in your body), its more than likely you are correct: You are the one who best knows what is normal, and what isn't with regard to your body mechanics.

TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR!

Sounds to like you should even seek consult with a urologist. I knew this gal whose husband's teste's would run and hide in his abdomen, and would frequently become ill with epidydamitis (sp). Thing is, when he was a kid one of his testcles didn't decend. A corrective surgery was performed and a complication (not figured out for decades) was those holes where the teste retreats for warmth, were accidentally made to larger, and the teste would retreat way way to far. .... sound familiar?

Talk to a doctor about this asap.
