Patient's question:
Testicular inflammation has been treated with medication for several days, but the effect is not obvious. The testicles are still swollen and painful, making it difficult to walk, and I can only lie down. Please ask what the specific cause of testicular inflammation is.Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is associated with many causes, including trauma, viral infections, and bacterial infections. Symptoms of orchitis must be treated with as much bed rest as possible, and intravenous antibiotics should be administered. If you are not allergic to cephalosporin antibiotics, intravenous cephalosporin antibiotics should be used. It is essential to completely cure the condition to avoid the risk of leaving behind an epididymal cyst, which is a complication. If the condition is not fully cured, it may lead to complications. This cyst can easily cause recurrence of orchitis and may require surgical removal of the cyst. Medication treatment is recommended.
