Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my testicles hurt, and I feel very uncomfortable. I got checked and was diagnosed with orchitis. I'd like to ask, how should I treat orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Friends generally can take procaine penicillin for testicular inflammation treatment by following medical advice and administering it via intramuscular injection. For those allergic to penicillin, lactoflexacin injection can be used for intravenous drip or gentamicin for intramuscular injection. After the inflammation is somewhat controlled, oral antibiotics such as cephalosporin, compound sulfamethoxazole, or ciprofloxacin should be switched to. The condition of testicular inflammation tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to promptly seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Additionally, proper diet should be maintained, and sexual activity should be avoided. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
