Is orchitis a serious illness?

Patient's question:

I am 43 years old this year. These past few days, I don't know what's going on, but my testicles are hurting. I haven't done anything special. I just want to ask: Is orchitis a serious illness?

Doctor's answer:

Take some oral symptomatic medication. Temporarily avoid smoking, alcohol, and spicy foods. In young people, most cases are considered related to specific behaviors. It is recommended to restrain sexual activities, engage in more aerobic outdoor exercises, alleviate life and work stress, maintain a healthy and regular lifestyle, avoid overtime and solitude, significantly improve deep sleep quality, pay attention to waist warmth, and if the condition does not improve, seek further medical diagnosis at the hospital. It is advised to avoid sexual activity during treatment.
