Patient's question:
A few weeks ago, I had a cold, so I thought the fever and chills were just due to the cold. However, the fever didn't go down, and after checking at the hospital, the doctor said I had orchitis. I don't know how I got this disease in the first place. Could you please tell me if the injection for hidden testicles is effective, or should I just have surgery?Doctor's answer:
Based on the current condition of the child, it is speculated that there is usually a hidden testicle, which can be completely restored on its own before the age of two.Guidance: If the child is younger than two years old and the testicle has not returned on its own, it is necessary to consider surgical treatment to prevent interference with the child's perinatal growth and development. For patients with urological diseases, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If treatment is delayed, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely symptomatic treatment and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
