Patient's question:
Testicular inflammation has been treated with medication for several days, but the effect is not obvious. The testicles still feel swollen and painful, making it difficult to walk, and I can only lie down. What are the consequences of improper treatment for testicular inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is the most common cause of testicular pain in men. Orchitis is inflammation of the testicles. In most cases, it is caused by the progression of testicular diseases. Due to the stimulation of inflammation, the testicles may experience pain again. Moreover, orchitis can severely damage male testicular function, reducing the ability of the testicles to produce sperm. If not treated promptly, it may lead to male infertility. It is recommended that antibiotics are ineffective for viral orchitis and that traditional Chinese medicine should be used for syndrome differentiation and treatment.
