I'm a bit worried about taking wysolone 20 mg for six days. Will it mess with my immunity or the normal functioning of my body? Could this dose make me more susceptible to infections? If so, how long would it take for my immune system to bounce back, and is there anything I can do to help it recover? I don't have any previous underlying health issues.

Testicular Pain: Possible Causes and Next Steps

Common causes of testicular pain:

1. Epididymitis (inflammation of the epididymis)
2. Orchitis (inflammation of the testicle)
3. Testicular torsion (twisting of the testicle)
4. Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)
5. Inguinal hernia
6. Kidney stones or urinary tract infections

Immediate action:

1. Seek medical attention: Consult a doctor or visit an emergency room, especially if the pain is severe, sudden, or accompanied by other symptoms like swelling, redness, or difficulty urinating.

Precautions:

1. Avoid self-diagnosis: Don't assume the cause of the pain without consulting a medical professional.
2. Don't delay: Prompt medical attention can help prevent complications and improve treatment outcomes.

What to expect at the doctor's office:

1. Physical examination
2. Medical history review
3. Urine test or imaging studies (e.g., ultrasound) if necessary

Remember, testicular pain can be a sign of a serious underlying condition. Seek medical attention to determine the cause and receive proper treatment.
