Doctor's answer:

Symptoms of early orchitis.
1. After contracting the disease, there is testicular pain, accompanied by referred pain in the scrotum, groin, and inguinal region.
2. In most cases, it is often accompanied by redness and swelling of the scrotal skin and hydrocele in the scrotum.
3. In children who experience recurrent viral orchitis, swelling and pain of the parotid glands may sometimes be observed.
4. In patients with orchitis, the testicles become swollen and tender. If the inflamed membrane is pressed, there may be a sensation of pus accumulation.
5. Patients with orchitis often have systemic symptoms, such as high fever, chills, nausea, and vomiting. Locally, it manifests as testicular pain, sometimes severe and radiating to the groin. The scrotal skin is red and swollen, and the testicles are significantly enlarged and tender.
