After the treatment for orchitis, I took Cefixime dispersible tablets and Azithromycin for another two weeks.

Patient's question:

After treating orchitis, I took Cefixime dispersible tablets and Azithromycin dispersible tablets for another two weeks, but there is still some pain in my testicles. Can I continue taking these two medications? The medication has already been finished.

Doctor's answer:

For mild acute orchitis, clinical treatment primarily focuses on physical measures such as bed rest, local heat application, and elevating the scrotum. Patients with acute orchitis can be treated with systemic anti-infective medications, which are particularly effective for those with acute bacterial orchitis. Commonly used drugs include cephalosporins, such as Cefixime and Ceftriaxone, as well as fluoroquinolone drugs.
