Patient's question:
Doctor, I have been experiencing testicular pain and itching recently. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with orchitis. How should orchitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
If it is confirmed that you have orchitis, it is likely caused by a bacterial infection. You can actively treat it with medication and pay close attention. I hope you don't feel stressed. Currently, you can decide to receive intravenous penicillin or similar drugs for anti-inflammatory treatment. During this period, you should still pay close attention to your condition. Most cases of orchitis that require at least 3 days of intravenous treatment can be relieved. However, the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay more attention to personal hygiene. I hope male patients can recover quickly!
