Patient's question:

I am an office white-collar worker. Throughout the day, I sit at my desk and am very busy, so I rarely get up to move around. Because of this, I was recently told that I have orchitis. Now, I am in constant pain every day and don't know what to do. Please ask: What are the possible methods for treating orchitis?

Doctor's answer:

Most cases of viral orchitis are caused by the mumps virus. The main pathogens of orchitis mainly include Escherichia coli, Proteus, Staphylococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc. Acute mumps orchitis can lead to irreversible damage to spermatogenesis or even testicular atrophy in bilateral inflammation, resulting in male infertility. The treatment methods generally include traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. It is important to pay attention to personal hygiene, bathe frequently, and maintain local cleanliness. In daily life, a light diet should be adopted, with more fruits and vegetables consumed, and dietary regularity should be noted. Wishing you good health. Orchitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to seek medical treatment immediately in professional and regular hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on examination results.
