Doctor's answer:
Easy Treatment Methods for OrchitisMethod 1: Acute orchitis is an acute inflammatory condition caused by infection. In this case, patients in the acute phase must rest in bed for 3–5 days and use a scrotal support, clothing, or gauze to elevate the scrotum, reducing the weight and alleviating the discomfort symptoms such as heaviness, swelling, and pain caused by the scrotum's downward sag. Pay attention to dietary adjustments. Orchitis is often accompanied by symptoms like fever and chills. During fever, energy consumption increases, so it is important to replenish calories.
Based on your description, the situation you mentioned could be due to the medication not being effective for your condition. In this case, it is recommended that you visit a better hospital for further examination and have a doctor confirm whether it is orchitis to avoid misdiagnosis. Under no circumstances should you take medication for such a long time without seeing any improvement.
