Patient's question:
Recently, I've always felt pain in my testicles, and this week alone, I've had a fever of 49 degrees Celsius. Usually, I feel cold, and when I take a bath, I touch my testicles and feel as if there's a lot of liquid inside. Please ask: How should I treat orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Hospitals for treating orchitis, for mumps orchitis, antibiotics are ineffective. Chinese herbal medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying can be used to treat orchitis. Immunoglobulin G and convalescent serum from mumps patients, diethylstilbestrol, and prednisone can reduce symptoms of orchitis. Antibiotics and other medications are used to treat orchitis. Severe cases of orchitis in patients may require surgery, such as drainage or orchiectomy. For syphilitic orchitis caused by syphilis, the testicles should be removed first, and further treatment should be decided after the pathology report. Local early cold compresses, and cold compresses in the middle and later stages can reduce symptoms of orchitis, and can alleviate the pain of orchitis.
