Patient's question:
Experts, I want to understand what are the causes of acute orchitis? I was recently diagnosed with acute orchitis, which is quite strange and frustrating. Could you speculate on it? Thank you!? What are the causes of acute orchitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the common causes of acute epididymitis are mostly Escherichia coli, followed by Proteus, Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc. Chlamydia trachomatis can also cause acute epididymitis. The pathogenic bacteria usually enter the epididymis through the reverse flow of the vas deferens. Additionally, bacteria can also enter the epididymis through lymphatic vessels or hematogenous transmission, but this is relatively rare. We hope you can seek treatment as soon as possible.
