Patient's question:
I've been feeling uncomfortable for a long time. What are the causes of orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is a common inflammation of the male reproductive system, which can be caused by various different septic factors leading to orchitic lesions. It can be classified into types such as non-specific, viral, fungal, spirochetal, parasitic, traumatic, and chemical. The transmission pathways are most commonly through the bloodstream and lymphatic system, but it can also be introduced into the testicles through the urethra, seminal vesicle, vas deferens, or epididymis. For patients with orchitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Patients should take medication promptly according to their symptoms and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
