How should orchitis be treated quickly?

Patient's question:

I have been taking medication for orchitis 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. How should orchitis be treated quickly?

Doctor's answer:

How should acute orchitis be treated? Orchitis should be treated with early intravenous administration of large doses of broad-spectrum effective antibiotics to suppress inflammation and prevent the recurrence of purulent orchitis and testicular abscesses. Special attention should be paid to orchitis associated with acute mumps, as bilateral inflammation can lead to irreversible damage to spermatogenesis or even testicular atrophy, resulting in male infertility. The primary treatment involves the use of anti-infective drugs, followed by the use of blood-activating and blood-stasis-resolving drugs. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery.
