Patient's question:
It's been a while, and recently I've started feeling some pain, especially when touched, it's particularly severe. Also, it seems there's some swelling on the other side. I'm very concerned. Could you please ask: How can orchitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Consider epididymitis, antibiotics are beneficial for treatment, and secondary cystitis will recover quickly. The choice of antibiotics should be based on bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests. Commonly used medications include co-trimoxazole, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and other third and fourth-generation quinolone and cephalosporin drugs, all of which have good efficacy. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
