Patient's question:
Continuous high fever and I am particularly afraid of cold. At first, I thought it was just a cold, but then I noticed that my testicles were getting more and more painful, and when I touched them, it felt like there was water inside. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with acute orchitis. Please ask: How is orchitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Chronic epididymitis is usually derived from acute epididymitis, mostly caused by urinary tract infections, and requires active treatment. The main treatment for inflammation is anti-infection therapy. Combining traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine treatments yields better results. Additionally, physical therapy, elevating the scrotum, cold compresses, and warm baths can also be effective.It is recommended to actively undergo anti-infection treatment for chronic epididymitis. If left untreated, it may lead to testicular removal. Wishing you good health! Epididymitis can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, medications should be used according to symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
