When taking a bath, you should pay attention to cleaning the testicles. Even if you don’t take a bath, you should clean the testicle area regularly, especially the area covered by the foreskin, to prevent bacterial growth.

③Prevent testicular injury.

In daily life, we should prevent accidental injuries to the testicles, such as riding a bicycle, and try to reduce pressure on the testicles. In addition, we should also prevent injuries to the testicles during sexual intercourse to avoid damage to the fragile testicles during intense processes and lay the hidden dangers of pathology.

④Self-examination of testicular diseases.

The best time to do a self-examination is after taking a shower, especially after rinsing your genitals with warm water. At this time, the skin is soft. Touch your scrotum with your hand. If you feel dull pain, swelling, or obvious asymmetry between the left and right testicles, you should be alert and seek medical attention promptly.
