How to treat orchitis well

Patient's question:

No bad habits, but I was recently diagnosed with orchitis. Now, I feel constant pain in my testicles, and sometimes I have high fever. I'm really troubled now. Please ask: How should orchitis be treated?

Doctor's answer:

1. High fever, chills
2. Testicular pain, with referred pain in the scrotum, groin, and inguinal region
3. Swelling and tenderness of the affected testicle; if inflamed, there may be a sense of fluctuating pus upon palpation
4. Often accompanied by redness and swelling of the scrotal skin and hydrocele in the scrotum
5. In children, recurrent viral orchitis may sometimes be accompanied by swollen and painful parotid glands. Rest in bed, support the scrotum, and apply local cold compresses. If the scrotal swelling is significant, use a 50% magnesium sulfate solution for to help reduce inflammation. For severe pain where painkillers are ineffective, the affected spermatic cord can be isolated. Systemic medication should include broad-spectrum or Gram-negative-sensitive antibiotics, such as penicillin, gentamicin, and various cephalosporins.
