Patient's question:
Last night while taking a shower, I touched my testicles and felt some pain. I woke 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 worried. Could you please tell me how orchitis is treated and what effects it has?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis can be caused by various factors, such as bacterial infections, viral infections, and aseptic inflammation. For the latter, it is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine that clears heat and detoxifies, as well as tonifies the body's constitution, to effectively stabilize symptoms. Pay attention to a light diet in daily life, and orchitis can be recovered. However, the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
