Patient's question:

A few days ago, I had testicular pain and went to the hospital for a check-up. The diagnosis was orchitis. What are the consequences of not treating orchitis? How should orchitis be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Orchitis can interfere with sperm quality, leading to dead sperm, azoospermia, and infertility. It can also transmit inflammatory bacteria to close relatives, causing gynecological diseases and causing great harm to the wife. Orchitis can easily lead to various serious diseases, such as varicocele, spermatic cord inflammation, prostatitis, endocrine diseases, nephritis and other kidney diseases, urinary tract infections, and malignant tumors, severely threatening men's lives. The harm of orchitis is significant. If you want to prevent these harms, you must go to a regular and professional urological hospital as soon as possible after discovering the disease to understand the examination and treatment.
