Patient's question:
Last night while taking a shower, I noticed my testicles felt a bit swollen. I woke up earlier and seemed to have a fever, which got worse in the afternoon. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told I have acute orchitis. I'm really very worried. Could you please tell me what tests are done for orchitis?Doctor's answer:
The treatment for epididymitis includes specific treatment, general treatment, physical therapy (supporting the scrotum, local cold compress, hot Sitz baths, physiotherapy, etc., or directly using Tolmetin to alleviate symptoms), comprehensive evaluation treatment for prostatitis. If local pain is severe, recurrent, and interferes with daily life and training, epididymectomy may be considered. Other treatments include dietary therapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for examination and determine the treatment method based on your condition. Epididymitis can be cured, but the general treatment process is slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and adopt a healthy lifestyle and diet during treatment. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
