Patient's question:
A few days ago, I had a cold, so I thought the fever and chills were caused by the cold. But the fever didn't go down, and after checking at the hospital, the doctor said I had orchitis. I don't know how I got this disease, but I'd like to ask: what are the common treatments for orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis. Orchitis is the most common cause of testicular pain in men. Orchitis is caused by inflammation of the testicles. In most cases, it is caused by the progression of a testicular disease. Due to the stimulation of inflammation, the testicles may experience pain again. Moreover, having orchitis can severely damage male testicular function, reducing the ability of the testicles to produce sperm. If it is not treated in time, it can lead to male infertility.Antibiotics are ineffective against viral orchitis and require treatment based on TCM syndrome differentiation. Oral fluoroquinolone. The condition of orchitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication.
