Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have pain in my testicles and feel very uncomfortable. After getting checked, I was diagnosed with orchitis. I would like to consult, how should I treat the testicular damage?Doctor's answer:
The testes are the primary organs for excreting androgens. If severe damage interferes with androgen excretion, it may lead to difficulties in achieving erection. However, if the severe damage is not obvious, minor trauma generally recovers quickly and usually does not significantly affect normal sexual function. Male urological diseases tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek immediate treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should also be observed. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
