Patient's question:
For a while now, my testicles have been slightly swollen with a dull ache. Recently, they've started to hurt more, especially when touched, and the other side seems to be slightly swollen as well. I'm very worried. Could you please tell me how to treat testicular inflammation to feel better?Doctor's answer:
Testicular inflammation is often caused by bacterial or viral infections. Common pathogens include Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, etc. Treatment options include antibiotics such as azithromycin and levofloxacin mesylate. If necessary, bacterial culture can be performed, and sensitive medications can be used based on the results. Testicular inflammation can be stabilized with treatment, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
