Patient's question:
How to distinguish between aseptic orchitis and bacterial orchitis? Can it be seen in a complete blood count?Doctor's answer:
Bacterial epididymitis is caused by bacterial infection, and the results of a complete blood count show an increase in white blood cells and neutrophils. However, aseptic epididymitis is not associated with bacterial infection. Epididymitis can be stable, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications must be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
