Patient's question:
Male, 26 years old, while taking a bath last night, I noticed my testicles felt a bit sore. I woke up earlier and seemed to have a fever, which became more severe in the afternoon. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told I have orchitis. I am really very worried. Please ask: what is going on with the child's itchy testicles?Doctor's answer:
The itching of a child's testicles may be caused by pruritus associated with scrotal eczema. Currently, it is recommended not to blindly use medication to treat the child. Diagnosis should be made promptly, and topical creams or external washes should be used under the guidance of a doctor to help alleviate the symptoms. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to seek systematic and standardized examinations at regular tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their own condition to ensure targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular routines, take precautions against cold and warmth, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of warm water.
