Patient's question:
Recently, I had a skin abrasion during the acute phase with high fever, chills, and testicular pain radiating to the groin. Accompanied by nausea and vomiting, I noticed redness and swelling in the scrotum, along with testicular enlargement. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was determined to be orchitis. What are the treatment methods for orchitis?Doctor's answer:
1. The principle of treating the disease is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, requiring bed rest, elevating the scrotum, local cold compresses, physical therapy, and isolated anesthesia to reduce pain. If an abscess forms, it should be incised and drained.2. The medication principle for the patient involves using sufficient and broad-spectrum antibiotics in the early stage, which is one solution for what to do when suffering from orchitis.
3. Through auxiliary examinations, the protocol for acute testicular disease is based on the examination framework, while the protocol for chronic testicular disease or recurrent cases can include the examination framework.
