Patient's question:
My baby is 6 and a half years old. Yesterday afternoon, I noticed that the right testicle was being pushed, causing pain near the testicle on the inner thigh. Today, I went to the hospital for a follow-up visit, and the doctor replied that it was inflamed. One hospital said that hospitalization treatment is needed, while another said that medication treatment is sufficient. I want to understand why children have such symptoms and what causes them. Is this condition requiring hospitalization or other treatments? Can this condition be cured? Is bed rest required during treatment? Can they attend school normally? What dietary precautions should be taken during treatment? What are the symptoms of orchitis in children?Doctor's answer:
Still caused by inflammation, treatment still needs to be based on anti-inflammatory measures. It's better to rest at home for two days. In terms of diet, it should be based on light food. Pay attention to digesting protein. Wishing your child good health. Orchitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's important to actively seek professional and regular medical treatment, considering treatment based on detailed examination results. Also, be mindful of restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood.
