Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a lot of pain in my testicles, and this week alone, I've had a fever twice. I often feel cold, and when I take a shower, I touch my testicles and feel like there's a lot of liquid inside. Please ask: How is orchitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis can be divided into acute orchitis and chronic orchitis. Acute orchitis is primarily characterized by sudden onset, high fever, chills, pain in the affected scrotum, tightness and redness of the skin, swelling, urgency and frequent urination, and significant tenderness, which may be accompanied by second-degree neurilemmal cysts. Chronic orchitis generally does not present with systemic symptoms, and the testicles gradually swell, forming a mass.For orchitis, early intravenous administration of large doses of broad-spectrum, effective antibiotics should be used to control inflammation and reduce the recurrence of suppurative orchitis and testicular abscesses. Orchitis can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, medications should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
