If the pain is severe and the painkillers are not effective, the spermatic cord on the affected side can be closed. Systemic medication should be broad-spectrum or Gram-negative antibiotics, such as penicillin, gentamicin, and various cephalosporins.

Bilateral chronic orchitis can often cause infertility. Treatment is mainly aimed at the cause of chronic orchitis.
