Patient's question:
I am a male, 31 years old, and have no bad habits. However, I was recently diagnosed with orchitis. Now, I feel constant pain in my testicles, and sometimes I also have high fever. I am really troubled now. Could you please tell me what the best treatment for orchitis is?Doctor's answer:
For orchitis, it is like this. Orchitis can be divided into acute orchitis and chronic orchitis. Acute orchitis is mainly characterized by sudden onset, high fever, chills, pain in the affected scrotum, tightness and redness of the skin, swelling, urgency and frequent urination, obvious tenderness, and may lead to second-degree neurilemmoma. Chronic orchitis generally has no systemic symptoms, with gradual swelling of the testicles and the formation of a lump. For orchitis, early intravenous administration of large amounts of broad-spectrum effective antibiotics should be used to control inflammation to reduce the recurrence of suppurative orchitis and testicular abscesses. It is recommended to go to a formal hospital for understanding and treatment, and to take medication under the guidance of a doctor. The condition of orchitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication.
