Genital trauma

Introduction Genital trauma: Although penile or scrotum can cause penetrating wounds and punctures, severe injuries are more common in skin or genital compression and laceration. Like other organs and tissues of the body, it is also traumatized, only because the part is covered by clothing, and the trauma after treatment is generally not visible to others.

Cause

Male genitalia are exposed to the body and are traumatized by violence. For example, a football player is hit or kicked by a strong soccer ball; when exerting some kind of physical labor, the force is improper, and the scrotum is hit by sticks, stones, instruments, and so on. At the same time, due to the function of sexual behavior, male genital trauma can also be related to sexual behavior.

1. The injury of penile trauma varies with the direction of external force and the magnitude of the force. The main common symptoms include pain, swelling, hematuria, and dysuria.

2. The scrotum will be swollen after trauma, and the skin of the scrotum becomes blue or black and the pain is severe.

3. After the testicular trauma, there is a sharp pain, radiation to the lower abdomen, waist pocket or even the upper abdomen. In severe cases, shock occurs. A large hematoma occurred in the scrotum, and the wall of the scrotum was bruised.

Differential diagnosis

The diagnosis of this disease is not difficult. When the scrotum is traumatized, it is necessary to check whether there is joint testicular injury by auxiliary examination, which is different from simple scrotal trauma.
