Patient's question:
It's strange that I didn't realize how I suddenly got acute orchitis. This condition has been a bit overwhelming for me, and I'd like to ask what are the symptoms of acute orchitis? Could you help me with that? What are the symptoms of acute orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Acute orchitis, commonly seen in middle-aged and young adults, is often caused by the spread of prostatitis or seminal vesiculitis, making it one of the common male reproductive system diseases. Orchitis is usually transmitted from adjacent organs. It is characterized by sudden pain in the scrotum, swelling of the epididymis, significant tenderness, and may be accompanied by fever, hardening of the epididymis, etc. Acute orchitis is often secondary to infections of the urethra, prostate, or seminal vesicles, while chronic orchitis is frequently caused by incomplete treatment during the acute phase.
