Patient's question:
Last night during sexual intercourse, I felt a bloated and painful sensation in my lower left abdomen. After a while, both sides started to feel a heavy pain, and the testicles also had a heavy pain. To save, if it's testicular inflammation, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, orchitis is mostly caused by bacterial invasion of the testicles. The transmission route is based on retrograde infection, and it can recur in patients with lower urinary tract infections, prostatitis, post-urethral surgery, and those with long-term indwelling catheters. Epididymitis can spread to the testicles through the bloodstream, while simple orchitis is often caused by bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Proteus, Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Clinical diagnosis symptoms include unilateral pain, groin reflex, fever, chills, nausea, and vomiting. The scrotal skin becomes red and swollen, the epididymis swells significantly, with obvious pain, accompanied by hydrocele.
