Patient's question:
Doctor, I have been experiencing pain and itching in my testicles recently. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with orchitis. How is orchitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Patients with orchitis are very prone to causing other diseases, such as varicocele, epididymitis, prostatitis, endocrine diseases, nephritis and other kidney diseases, urinary tract infections, and malignant tumors. At the same time, the recurrence of any of the above diseases poses a direct threat to life. Orchitis should be treated early with intravenous administration of large doses of broad-spectrum effective antibiotics to control inflammation and reduce the recurrence of purulent orchitis and testicular abscesses, particularly attention should be paid to acute mumps orchitis. For patients with orchitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If not treated in a timely manner, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to prevent prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
