Patient's question:
Last night while taking a shower, I touched my testicles and felt a bit of pain. I got up earlier and seemed to have a fever, which got worse in the afternoon. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told I have orchitis. I am really very worried. Please ask: How is orchitis best treated?Doctor's answer:
Friend, regarding where the best treatment for orchitis is, it's like this: sudden pain can occur again due to testicular torsion, and the pain from infectious orchitis gradually spreads. Like pain from any source, you may notice swelling or redness in the testicle or scrotum, as well as nausea and vomiting. Epididymitis may occur with fever or chills, but it rarely recurs. Epididymitis does recur, but infrequently, and discomfort during urination or uncontrolled ejaculation is also common. For the best treatment for orchitis, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for follow-up, identify the cause, and treat accordingly, only then can you confirm which medication is effective for epididymitis. Wishing you health! The condition of orchitis is prone to recurring.
