What are the reasons that can cause acute orchitis?

Patient's question:

I have acute orchitis. I want to ask what are the possible causes of acute orchitis?

Doctor's answer:

Acute orchitis is relatively common, and you don't need to feel too much pressure. This condition often occurs in patients with urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, post-prostatectomy, and those with long-term indwelling catheters. Additionally, certain bacteria can also cause orchitis. These bacteria mainly include Escherichia coli, Proteus, Staphylococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Bacteria can spread hematogenously to the testicles, causing isolated orchitis. In daily life, personal hygiene should be paid attention to.
