Thank you to the doctor for answering my question quickly – how to treat and prevent it

Doctor's answer:

Orchitis can be divided into acute orchitis and chronic orchitis. Acute orchitis is primarily characterized by sudden onset, high fever, chills, pain in the affected scrotum, tightness and redness of the skin, swelling, enlargement, urgency and frequent urination, and significant tenderness, which can lead to hydrocele. Chronic orchitis generally does not cause systemic symptoms, and the testes gradually enlarge, forming hard lumps. For orchitis, early intravenous administration of large doses of broad-spectrum effective antibiotics should be used to control inflammation and reduce the occurrence of suppurative orchitis and testicular abscesses.
