Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have pain in my testicles and feel very uncomfortable. After a check-up, I was diagnosed with orchitis. I would like to consult, how should I treat orchitis better?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis can be divided into acute orchitis and chronic orchitis. Acute orchitis is primarily characterized by sudden onset, high fever, chills, pain in the affected scrotum, tightness and redness of the skin, swelling, urgency and frequent urination, and significant tenderness, which may lead to (second-order neuron sheath effusion). Chronic orchitis generally has no systemic symptoms, with gradual swelling of the testicles and the formation of a lump.For orchitis, early intravenous administration of large doses of broad-spectrum, effective antibiotics should be used to control inflammation and reduce the recurrence of suppurative orchitis and testicular abscesses. The condition of orchitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals immediately and consider treatment based on examination results. Proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should also be observed. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
