Patient's question:
I've always been puzzled about how I ended up with chronic orchitis. This condition surprised me, as I hadn't paid much attention to it before. Lately, I've noticed it's getting a bit worse. Can chronic orchitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
In clinical diagnosis, many patients develop the condition after undergoing a prostatectomy. This is primarily because, for a period of time following the surgery, the patient's urine often contains a certain number of bacteria. Additionally, since the treatment method used is transurethral prostatectomy, the pressure of the urine flow during urination can cause urine to reflux into the ejaculatory ducts, leading to a recurrence of epididymitis. Moreover, for male patients, it is essential to seek medical treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination.
