Patient's question:
Last week, I noticed that my testicles were a bit red, but since there were no symptoms, I didn't take it seriously. Last night while taking a shower, I accidentally touched my testicles and felt a bit of pain. I touched it myself and thought there seemed to be a lot of liquid inside. I was very scared. Please ask: What are the common treatment methods for orchitis?Doctor's answer:
1. High fever, chills.2. Testicular pain, accompanied by referred pain in the scrotum, groin, and inguinal region.
3. The affected testicle is swollen and tender. If inflamed, it may feel like a fluctuating sensation of pus upon palpation.
4. Often accompanied by scrotal skin redness and swelling, as well as hydrocele.
5. In children, recurrent viral orchitis may sometimes be accompanied by swollen and painful parotid glands. Rest in bed, support the scrotum, and apply local cold compresses. If the scrotal swelling is significant, use a 50% magnesium sulfate solution for to help reduce inflammation. For severe pain that does not respond well to painkillers, the affected side can be isolated with a spermatic cord isolation.
