Patient's question:
I would like to ask you a question. My friend is currently sick, and he was only diagnosed yesterday with acute orchitis. The condition is a bit serious now. He is currently experiencing pain in the lower abdomen and difficulty urinating.Doctor's answer:
If the patient visits within 24 hours of onset, infiltration anesthesia of the spermatic cord above the testis with 20ml of 1% procaine or lidocaine can potentially completely relieve this condition. The temperature usually drops rapidly, pain can completely disappear, and inflammatory masses can absorb within a few days. Otherwise, they generally take 2 to 3 weeks to absorb. If one injection does not achieve the desired effect, a second injection can be administered the next day.Antibiotics are helpful in treatment, and secondary cystitis will heal quickly. The choice of antibiotics should be based on bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests. Commonly used medications include co-trimoxazole, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and other second and third-generation quinolone and cephalosporin drugs, all of which have good efficacy.
