Patient's question:
No bad habits, but I was recently diagnosed with orchitis. Now, I feel severe pain in my testicles every day, and sometimes I also have high fever. I am really troubled now. Please ask: What treatment is effective for orchitis?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of orchitis employs the approach of "distinguishing between severity and combining Chinese and Western medicine," which has yielded good results. Traditional Chinese medicine primarily targets the following three types, with syndrome differentiation and treatment applied accordingly:(1) Damp-heat lower-jiao type: Treatment focuses on clearing damp-heat and dispelling toxicity to resolve abscesses.
(2) Qi stagnation and blood stasis type acute orchitis: Treatment aims to regulate qi and activate blood circulation, as well as disperse stagnation.
(3) Blood clump stagnation type acute orchitis: Treatment centers on promoting blood circulation to resolve stasis and activate blood.
Orchitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should actively seek diagnosis at professional and reputable hospitals, with treatment decisions based on thorough examination results. It is also important to abstain from sexual activity, maintain a positive mood, and wish all patients a speedy recovery.
