Coronavirus swells testicles in men

Coronavir swells the testicles of men and may leave them infertile, experts claim.

A doctor at the San Antonio Uniform Services Health Education Consortium in Texas said the patient went to A & E because of scrotum swelling and discomfort.

For ten days before he was hospitalized, he suffered from some of the major coronavirus symptoms such as dry cough, fatigue and fever.

He told the doctor that the pain in his testes had developed about three days ago.

The patient was Covid-19-positive at an outpatient clinic five days before his first symptoms appeared.

Very rare

Medic, American Emergency Medicine Journal, Covid-19 said, damaging his spermatocytes, which keeps sperms healthy.

They believe that the virus used the ACE2 receptor present in the testis of Leydig cells to enter the body.

However, we acknowledge that such cases are extremely rare.

The doctor treated him with painkillers and antibiotics, and he was discharged at night in a hospital where the pain improved.

They publish case reports in the hope that they will help other healthcare professionals “early identify this disease and trigger appropriate treatment, quarantine, and fertility follow-up.” did.

No official link

There are other similar reports of testicular pain in Covid-19 patients, but there are no official studies on links yet.

In April, researchers claimed that the testicles could hide the coronavirus, allowing the deadly virus to persist longer in men.

They claim that this results in a way for Covid-19 to enter the body through cells that express the ACE2 protein.

These proteins are found in the lungs, heart, intestines, and in the testes in large amounts.

In women, very small amounts are found in the ovarian tissue.

A pilot study showed that women took four days to clear the infection, while men took 50% longer, taking six days.

The study was released prior to its publication on the medical website MedRxiv and has not been reviewed by experts, but experts question its early findings.

Notes on issuing

Professor Ian Jones, a professor of virology at Reading University, said the coronavirus needs to travel through the bloodstream to reach the testes.

“The main site of viral replication is the respiratory tract, which requires the virus to travel through the bloodstream to reach other sites.

“It’s been reported about viruses, but that’s not what coronaviruses do in general.

“Men generally show worse immunological results than women. Probably only one X chromosome results, and this imbalance is likely behind the differences seen. This work has not been peer reviewed.”

Another study found no coronavirus in the patient’s semen, another professor of molecular virology at Jonathan Ball University at Nottingham suggests that this is not a “important reservoir” of coronavirus.
