Right side undescended Testical

[worrying281]

Dear Doctor/ Friends,

I am 33 year old male. I have undescended right side testicle situated at right upper side. Its same like since  my early childhood or by born.Normally I don't have any problem with this ,also I have around 40 Million sperm count and 40 % mortality rate.  

But sometime if I  laid down on my right side it seems like burning on same descended testicle.

Please advice me what should I do with this condition. Should I need to see a doctor or leave it like that.

I am worrying because I read some information .on internet that it may lead other serious problem latter on. Please advice  which is the best option either I should go for operation or any other treatment.

I have checked with one doctor ten year ago,  he just made ultrasound and semen analysis, as my semen analysis was normal for fertility he did advice anything.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Hi,
     It appears from your description that your right side testicle is still in the scrotum, but remains raised up in it. If the testicular growth is still normal, and is contributing to the sperm production, may be you need not have to worry. It appears like a case of short spermatic cord.

As I understand, an undescended testis gets stuck in the abdomen and does not descend into scrotum. In that case, if not corrected through medical intervention at an early age, its development is affected during puberty and it remains nonfunctional. In such cases, it is recomended to remove it, as otherwise, it can lead to complications like cancer.

Are you married and have children ? In any case, do consult a urologist and find out if your right testis is infact an undescended one and require to be removed?

Thanks for your help. Physician did not tell me for surgery. Should I go for any other physician, what is the chance to get any problem in future if it left as it.

As you have mentioned, it would be best to see your physician to see if your  undescended right side testicle can be brought out at this time for your present and future health.
