Patient's question:
Recently, I have experienced swelling and pain in my lower body testicles, which are slightly bent. The swelling below is very distressing. I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor conducted some tests. After that, he said it was orchitis. How can you treat orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Cold compresses can be used in the early stages to prevent swelling, and later to speed up inflammation. Drinking plenty of water and avoiding spicy foods and alcohol is necessary. It is recommended to avoid long periods of cycling and prolonged squatting in the toilet. Using warm water baths for the perineum appropriately and maintaining local cleanliness at all times is advisable. Antibiotics should be used appropriately. Drink plenty of water. Orchitis has many causes, such as infections, trauma, and tumors. It is a common condition in urology. In addition to pain caused by testicular diseases, conditions like epididymitis, spermatic cord disease, and scrotal inflammation often cause testicular pain. Therefore, to identify the cause of testicular pain, a doctor with extensive clinical experience is needed to carefully diagnose and pinpoint the key issue. I recommend you go to a regular hospital, as it is generally advised to promptly undergo surgical examination.
