Is orchitis in children serious?

Patient's question:

My son is 6 years old. He told me that the area of his testicles was very painful, and the area of his inner thigh was a bit sore. I thought he might have been bumped a few times, but he started to have a fever today, so I called 120. He was diagnosed with orchitis. Is orchitis in children harmful?

Doctor's answer:

The main manifestations of external hemorrhoids may include anal pain during defecation, a foreign body-like protrusion from the anus, and the presence of hematuria. The causes may be related to the patient's individual constitution and a long-standing habit of constipation, often resulting in varicose veins around the anus due to constipation, leading to this clinical presentation. In terms of treatment, surgical intervention is generally recommended. If harsh treatment methods are used, they are often only treating symptoms rather than the root cause. It is important to drink more water, maintain a light diet, and avoid smoking and alcohol in daily life.
