Patient's question:
A few weeks ago, I had a cold, so I thought the fever and chills were caused by the cold. But the fever didn't go down, and when I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I had orchitis. I don't know how I got this disease, but I'd like to ask: What causes testicular pain?Doctor's answer:
Acute pain is commonly seen in orchitis and traumatic orchitis. In addition to hematogenous transmission, it is more common for bacteria to travel retrograde from the urethra to the epididymis and testes, causing epididymitis and orchitis. Clinical diagnosis is evident with swelling and pain in the epididymis and testes. Testicular injury is often accompanied by a history of trauma, localized swelling, and blood clots. Intense exercise or sexual activity, as well as violence, may sometimes cause severe contraction of the cremaster muscle, leading to the repositioning of a long testicle and resulting in intense testicular pain.Urological diseases can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is prone to occur after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, during the treatment period, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
