How should orchitis be treated to get better?

Patient's question:

The skin of my testicles is particularly red, and it seems a bit swollen. It also hurts when I touch it. This symptom has not improved after a week. I'm still young and haven't even been married. I'm really scared. Please ask: How can testicular inflammation be treated to get better?

Doctor's answer:

Orchitis is characterized by testicular swelling, pain, and a sense of lower abdominal fullness and pressure. The pain can radiate to the perineum and thighs, and difficulty with masturbation may occur. During acute relapse, systemic symptoms such as high fever, chills, nausea, and vomiting may appear. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for follow-up, adhere to the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment, and rest in bed while elevating the scrotum and applying local cold compresses to alleviate symptoms.
Wishing you good health. Orchitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, during the treatment period, it is advisable to maintain a healthy lifestyle and proper diet. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
