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 I treat orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the current situation you have described, the inflammatory response in the testicles may cause pain, swelling, and local fever. It is recommended that you visit a professional urology and andrology department for a color Doppler ultrasound examination of both testicles and epididymides. Additionally, blood tests can be conducted for bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests. Generally, the use of antimicrobial drugs for 1 to 2 weeks can lead to recovery. You can apply heat each night to promote the relief of these symptoms.
