Patient's question:
I have had a high fever for 2 days, and I am particularly afraid of cold. At first, I thought it was just a cold, but then I noticed that my testicles were getting more and more painful, and when I touched them, it felt like there was water inside. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with orchitis. Please ask: How can orchitis be treated quickly to recover?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of orchitis can be administered under medical advice with procaine penicillin via intramuscular injection. For those allergic to penicillin, ciprofloxacin lactate for injection can be used for intravenous drip or gentamicin for intramuscular injection. After the inflammation is somewhat controlled, oral antibiotics such as cephalosporin, cotrimoxazole, or ciprofloxacin can be switched to. Orchitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should actively seek professional and reputable medical treatment, considering treatment based on thorough examination results. Proper diet should be maintained, and sexual activity should be avoided. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
