Patient's question:
A few weeks ago, I had a cold, so I thought the fever and chills were just due to the cold. But the fever didn't go down, and when I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I had orchitis. I don't know how I got this disease, but I'm asking: What is the most effective treatment for orchitis pain?Doctor's answer:
The causes of testicular swelling and discomfort are numerous, commonly including orchitis and genital trauma. In addition to hematogenous transmission, orchitis is more commonly caused by bacteria retrograding from the urethra to the epididymis and testes, leading to epididymitis and orchitis. Clinical diagnosis reveals swelling and pain in the epididymis and testes. In chronic cases, symptoms are milder, making it difficult to determine the exact location of the inflammation. Men experiencing testicular pain should seek follow-up treatment at a formal and professional urological hospital to avoid health risks. It must be clearly understood that the cause of testicular pain??orchitis not only affects male sexual function but can also lead to varicocele, prostatitis, and other urinary tract infections. It may even transmit inflammatory pathogens to close relatives, causing gynecological diseases.
