Patient's question:
Recently, I've always felt pain in my testicles, and this week alone I've had a fever 28 times. Usually, I feel cold, and when I take a bath, I touch my testicles and feel like there's a lot of liquid inside. Please ask: How is orchitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Principles of Testicular Torsion Treatment:1. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment;
2. Bed rest, elevate the scrotum, local cold compresses, and physical therapy; 1% lidocaine spermatic cord block anesthesia to reduce pain.
3. If an abscess forms, incision and drainage should be performed.
Principles of Medication Use:
Use sufficient and broad-spectrum antibiotics in the early stage. Testicular torsion can be stabilized with medications like azithromycin, but the treatment duration is usually long, and recurrence is common after recovery. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, appropriate medication use, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during treatment are essential. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
