Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my testicles hurt, I feel very uncomfortable. I got testitis after a check-up. I want to ask, what is the best treatment for testicular swelling?Doctor's answer:
Common orchitis includes non-specific and mumps orchitis. Any purulent sepsis can lead to acute purulent orchitis of the second-order neurons, and even result in testicular abscess. The pathogens are mostly Escherichia coli, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In fact, the most common cause of purulent orchitis is actually the spread of infection from epididymitis, so it should technically be called epididymo-orchitis. It is recommended to apply local cold compresses first, and then seek medical examination at a formal hospital for a urine routine test and scrotal ultrasound. For patients with testicular swelling, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting. Wish you a speedy recovery.
