Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a lot of pain in my testicles, and this week alone, I've had a fever twice. Usually, I feel cold, and when I take a shower, I notice that my testicles seem to contain a lot of liquid. Please ask: How is orchitis generally treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is possible that it could be orchitis. There are many causes of orchitis, such as infections, trauma, and tumors, and it is also one of the common conditions seen in urology clinics. When patients describe their symptoms, due to the different conditions, the nature of the pain can vary, including aching pain, dragging pain, and knife-like pain, among others. The degree of pain can also differ, ranging from dull pain to severe pain. In addition to the pain caused by inflammation of the testicles themselves, inflammation of the epididymis and spermatic cord within the scrotum can also cause testicular pain. As mentioned earlier, if a football hits a male's sensitive area, the testicles, with intense and heavy stimulation, can cause severe testicular pain, which can even lead to shock.
