Patient's question:
Last night while taking a shower, I noticed my testicles felt a bit sore. I woke up earlier and thought I might have a fever, and it got worse in the afternoon. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told I have orchitis. I'm really very worried. Could you please ask: How can orchitis pain be treated safely?Doctor's answer:
The testicular pain you mentioned is preliminarily considered to be inflammation of the testis or epididymis. For a specific diagnosis, you can have a color Doppler ultrasound of the testis and epididymis at the urology department of the hospital. Alternatively, you can take some anti-inflammatory medication first to see if it improves the condition. Recently, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and do not drink beer. For patients with male reproductive diseases, timely treatment can reduce the recurrence of the condition. If it is not treated promptly, it may affect your overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication according to their symptoms and maintain a regular sexual life in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
