What should I do if I have testicular pain and suspect testicular inflammation?

Patient's question:

When I was with my girlfriend, I had testicular pain and went to the hospital to check for orchitis. I took levofloxacin hydrochloride for over a month. Now I have mild pain on both sides of my lower abdomen. How should I treat it?

Doctor's answer:

If the testicular swelling and fullness reappears, it is recommended that you go to the hospital to have a color Doppler ultrasound of the testicles and epididymis. Do not scare yourself, and it is still necessary to go to the hospital for relevant examinations. Then, the treatment plan can be confirmed based on the examination results. Testicular inflammation can be cured, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
