Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my testicles hurt, and I feel very uncomfortable. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with orchitis. I would like to consult about what factors can lead to orchitis.Doctor's answer:
The factors leading to orchitis are relatively numerous, including fungi, spirochetes, parasites, mumps, urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, and benign prostatic hyperplasia, all of which can cause recurrent orchitis. If treatment is not timely, it may lead to conditions such as varicocele, prostatitis, varicocele, endocrine disorders, kidney diseases (e.g., nephritis), urinary tract infections, and malignant tumors, worsening the condition and increasing the difficulty of treatment. It is recommended not to take medication blindly. Many medications are prescribed based on individual constitution, cause of onset, and symptoms, specifying the method and dosage of medication. Blindly taking medication can lead to further deterioration of the condition.
