Patient's question:
I am a sex worker, and recently during a health check-up, I discovered I have orchitis. I'm concerned that it might potentially lead to cancer. I would like to ask what precautions to take for orchitis-related cancer, what dietary considerations there are, and whether there are any medications I should take besides my regular medications?Doctor's answer:
The risk of cancer caused by scrotal inflammation and infection is relatively low, so there is no need to be overly anxious. It is important to maintain good personal hygiene. You can undergo regular and thorough check-ups and diagnoses according to your own situation. It is advisable to eat less spicy and irritating foods and consume more fresh fruits and vegetables to help regulate and suppress the condition. You can also use anti-inflammatory medications for treatment based on your circumstances. Scrotal inflammation can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after recovery. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
