Patient's question:
Last month, my testicles suddenly swelled up. I went to the hospital for tests and reviewed the report. The white blood cell count was abnormal. After taking a course of anti-inflammatory medication, the testicles returned to their normal size and the pain subsided. Recently, a friend of mine got divorced, and I consumed a bit more spicy food and alcohol. Afterward, I noticed redness in my body after ejaculation. I want to ask if avoiding alcohol and reducing spicy food will help, and what kind of medication would be beneficial?Doctor's answer:
It might be that the previous orchitis has not fully recovered yet, and you may need to take some oral anti-inflammatory medication for a few days. It is recommended that you follow a light diet recently, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and also take some anti-inflammatory medication for a few days. After about a week, you can do a routine urine test again. However, the treatment process is generally slow, and it is easy to relapse after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and the patient should also follow a light diet and avoid stimulating foods.
