Patient's question:
Now every day I feel severe pain in my testicles, and sometimes I also have high fever. I am really struggling right now. Please ask: Can orchitis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are two common types of orchitis: non-specific and mumps-related. Any purulent sepsis can lead to acute purulent orchitis of the second-order neurons, even resulting in testicular abscess. The causative pathogens are mostly Escherichia coli, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In fact, the most common cause of purulent orchitis is actually the spread of epididymitis, hence it should be referred to as epididymo-orchitis. Patients often experience testicular pain that radiates to the groin, a noticeable sensation of heaviness, accompanied by high fever, nausea, vomiting, leukopenia, and other symptoms. The testicles are significantly swollen and tender, with redness and swelling of the scrotal skin. If this condition is detected, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
