Can I have sexual life if the chronic orchitis lump has not disappeared yet?

Patient's question:

My friend has chronic orchitis (there is a lump in the testicle and he has been taking medication for almost two months, but the lump has not disappeared).
Please ask:
1. Can he have sexual life if the lump has not disappeared?
2. Is there a problem if the lump only reduced by one-third after taking medication for so long?
Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Considering it may be caused by inflammation, you can try taking levofloxacin and metronidazole for treatment. Make sure to drink plenty of water, and if necessary, go to the hospital for further examination and treatment.
