Patient's question:
Sometimes, a testicle may have a small swelling, and if you exert too much force, it may reappear. You need to take anti-inflammatory medication for a long time, and if you stop taking the medication, it will reappear again. When you go to the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor says it's testitis. At that time, the treatment was improving, but later it recurred repeatedly. What are the treatment methods for testitis?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is a common cause of testicular pain. There are many reasons that can lead to orchitis, such as patients with mumps, which can cause secondary orchitis, leading to testicular pain and swelling; gonorrhea is currently the most prevalent sexually transmitted disease, and in severe cases, it can cause orchitis, resulting in testicular pain and swelling; chronic prostatitis can also cause testicular pain, characterized by unilateral pain, mostly dull or pulling pain, which is persistent. Microscopic examination of prostatic fluid reveals a large number of white blood cells. The patients are mostly young and middle-aged adults, with the elderly being less common.
