Patient's question:
Diagnosed with orchitis in early 2014, treatment failed for about half a year. One testicle was removed in August 2014. Since then, anti-inflammatory treatment has been ongoing. Recently, he has been experiencing intermittent testicular pain and erection pain. Hospital diagnosis confirmed orchitis again!Doctor's answer:
Hello, orchitis can be treated with medications such as azithromycin and levofloxacin mesylate. If necessary, a bacterial culture can be performed, and sensitive medications can be used based on the results. Alternatively, you can consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who may use methods such as clearing heat and eliminating dampness according to the syndrome differentiation. Medications like Sanmiao Wan, Huangbai Capsules, and Longdan Xiaogang Wan can also be used based on the specific symptoms.In daily life, make sure to get adequate rest, avoid tight clothing, and maintain local comfort and ventilation. Local heat applications or medicinal baths can also be appropriately used to promote the resolution of inflammation.
