What are the symptoms of orchitis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have been experiencing testicular pain and itching recently. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with orchitis. What are the symptoms of orchitis?

Doctor's answer:

1. High fever, chills.
2. Testicular pain, with referred pain in the scrotum, groin, and inner thigh area.
3. The affected testicle is swollen and tender. If inflamed, it may feel like a fluctuating sensation of pus upon palpation.
4. Often accompanied by redness and swelling of the scrotal skin and hydrocele in the scrotum. Orchitis can be resolved, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, medication must be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
