Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling constant pain in my testicles, and this week alone, I've had a fever twice. I often feel cold, and when I take a bath, I notice that my testicles seem to contain a lot of liquid. Please ask: How can testicular inflammation be treated quickly and effectively?Doctor's answer:
Testicular inflammation is mostly caused by bacterial or viral infections, or secondary infections from adjacent tissue inflammation. It can be controlled with intravenous antibiotics. Surgical treatment is not required at the moment. Rest in bed, maintain good hygiene of the external genitalia, elevate the scrotum, and apply cold compresses to promote the resolution of inflammation. During this period, sexual activity and intercourse are strictly prohibited. Avoid extremely cold and spicy foods, as well as smoking and alcohol, to avoid interfering with recovery. For patients with orchitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
