Prostatitis, orchitis, and epididymitis can they lead to a urinalysis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello:
Please ask: Can prostatitis, orchitis, and epididymitis lead to WBC+ in a urinalysis? What tests should be done for confirmation? How should the medication be taken? Thank you!!!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, can we do a prostatic fluid test to check for prostatitis?
Testicular inflammation:
1. The examination items for acute testicular inflammation primarily focus on the "A" check box.
2. For chronic testicular inflammation or recurrent cases, the examination items may include the "A," "B," or "C" check boxes.
The diagnosis of epididymitis can often be made based on medical history and physical examination, but it is important to differentiate it from testicular torsion. Testicular torsion occurs suddenly, with the testicle becoming swollen, fixed, and unable to move within the scrotum. Elevating the scrotum does not relieve local pain.
Chronic epididymitis is often characterized by uniform swelling of the epididymis, hardness, and tenderness.
