Examination of Male Genitalia
Examination of male genitalia involves a systematic assessment to identify any abnormalities or diseases. This typically includes:
External Examination: Visual inspection and gentle palpation of the penis, scrotum, and testicles.
Internal Examination: A digital rectal exam (DRE) in men over 50 or with risk factors.
Further tests, such as urinalysis or blood tests, may be ordered based on the patient’s history and symptoms. Patient comfort and privacy are crucial throughout the process.
