The treatment of chronic testicular pain is a complex condition that will be encountered by most practicing clinicians. In this study, the influence of low-level laser irradiation of the red and infrared spectral range for treating chronic testicular pain was evaluated and compared. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial study, 60 patients were randomly divided into three groups of 20: (1) low-level laser group with red (650 nm, 50 mW), (2) low-level laser group with infrared (820 nm, 100 mW) and (3) laser placebo group. The treatment protocol consisted of 15 minutes, three times a week, for only 12 sessions. Then the patients were evaluated for pain and sexual satisfaction during the follow-up. There was a significant reduction in the pain score in the two groups of the low-level laser group with red (650 nm, 50 mW) and the low-level laser group with Infrared (820 nm, 100 mW) spectra compared with the control, at 6 and 12 weeks after the treatment (<0.05). Also, the level of sexual satisfaction in the two groups of low-power laser with red and infrared spectra showed a significant improvement (<0.05). Low-level laser therapy is a safe, noninvasive, and useful method for treating patients with chronic testicular pain. Therefore, red (650 nm, 50 mW) and Infrared (820 nm, 100 mW) spectra low-level laser therapies improve testicular pain and sexual satisfaction.
慢性睾丸疼痛的治疗是大多数执业临床医生都会遇到的复杂病症。在本研究中，评估并比较了红色和红外光谱范围的低强度激光照射对治疗慢性睾丸疼痛的影响。在这项双盲、安慰剂对照的随机临床试验研究中，60名患者被随机分为三组，每组20人：(1) 红色（650纳米，50毫瓦）低强度激光组，(2) 红外（820纳米，100毫瓦）低强度激光组和(3) 激光安慰剂组。治疗方案为每次15分钟，每周三次，仅进行12次疗程。然后在随访期间对患者的疼痛和性满意度进行评估。与对照组相比，红色（650纳米，50毫瓦）低强度激光组和红外（820纳米，100毫瓦）低强度激光组在治疗后6周和12周时疼痛评分显著降低（<0.05）。此外，红色和红外光谱的两组低功率激光组的性满意度水平也有显著提高（<0.05）。低强度激光疗法是治疗慢性睾丸疼痛患者的一种安全、无创且有效的方法。因此，红色（650纳米，50毫瓦）和红外（820纳米，100毫瓦）光谱的低强度激光疗法可改善睾丸疼痛和性满意度。
