Patient's question:
My testicles have grown a bit larger, and there is pain during ejaculation after intercourse. The next day, I experience lower back and leg pain. The hospital said it might be orchitis. How can I confirm if it is orchitis?Doctor's answer:
The testis is the male reproductive organ where sperm is produced. Testitis is relatively common and is caused by local bacterial infection. Its diagnosis mainly relies on symptoms and color Doppler ultrasound examination. It is recommended that patients visit the urology department of a regular hospital for examination, including a physical examination of the testis and color Doppler ultrasound. If testitis is confirmed, active medication treatment is required, and follow-up examinations should be conducted regularly to monitor the recovery progress.
