Patient's question:
Suddenly appeared symptoms of frequent urination and urgency yesterday morning. Went to the hospital for a check-up and was told I had acute orchitis. How can acute orchitis be treated better?Doctor's answer:
There are signs of acute epididymitis. This epididymis, located near the male testicles, is generally not prone to infection. Once infected, it is relatively difficult to cure completely. Typically, treatment involves the use of antibacterial medications. Using a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic is acceptable. Additionally, it is recommended to conduct a routine semen examination and culture test to use antibiotics targeted at the specific infection. It is also advisable to complement this with traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxification for better treatment.
