What to do if you have a slight testicular torsion

Testicular torsion does not exist in the slightest degree and all require hospitalization once suspected or diagnosed. Testicular torsion can cause ischemia in the testicle, and any torsion can cause ischemia once it occurs, so it is an acute and serious urologic condition. If the blood supply to the testicular torsion is not restored early, it can cause ischemia, necrosis, and even the risk of needing to remove the testicle. When there is testicular torsion, it is always treated as a serious illness, and requires immediate hospitalization for ultrasound or MRI, and hospitalization immediately after suspicion or diagnosis, and attempts can be made to reset the testicle by manipulation, which should preferably be done under anesthesia. If repositioning fails, the operation should be immediately changed to open surgery to restore the ischemia of the testis after testicular torsion. In principle, the blood supply to the testis should be restored within 6 hours; if the time window is exceeded, there is a risk of irreversible damage to the testis in the morning, producing a corresponding hypofunction. The longer the time the greater the risk of testicular necrosis and the greater the probability of removal of the testicle.
