Patient's question:
I recently had pain and itching in my testicles. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with orchitis. How can orchitis be effectively treated?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis can be divided into acute orchitis and chronic orchitis. Acute orchitis is primarily characterized by sudden onset, high fever, chills, pain in the affected scrotum, tightness and redness of the skin, swelling, urgency and frequent urination, and significant tenderness, which may lead to. Chronic orchitis generally does not present with systemic symptoms, and the testicles gradually swell and form a mass. Early intravenous administration of large doses of broad-spectrum effective antibiotics should be used to control inflammation and reduce the recurrence of purulent orchitis and testicular abscesses. For orchitis patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
