How to diagnose and treat orchitis more effectively?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been feeling constant pain in my testicles, and this week alone, I've had a fever twice. I usually feel cold, and when I take a bath, I notice that my testicles seem to contain a lot of liquid. Please ask: What are the most effective ways to diagnose and treat orchitis?

Doctor's answer:

For mild acute orchitis, clinical diagnosis primarily relies on physical treatment measures such as bed rest, local cold compresses, and elevating the scrotum. Urological experts cite that this treatment method is simple, effective, and can prevent antibiotic damage. If the patient does not show improvement after simple physical treatment, or if the condition is more severe, it is necessary to administer appropriate antibiotic treatment in a timely manner. Pay attention to personal hygiene, especially local cleanliness, maintain a regular lifestyle, drink plenty of water, eat a light diet, avoid smoking and alcohol, and prevent prolonged sitting. Timely medical examinations, such as routine semen analysis and scrotal ultrasound, should be conducted to clarify the condition. Based on the examination results, follow the doctor's advice and actively cooperate with treatment. The cause remains unclear.
