Which department should I see for orchitis?

Men always appear very strong outside and are the support of their wives and children at home, but they also have a fragile side and often have some unspeakable secrets. For example, men may suffer from orchitis, which not only makes men physically uncomfortable, but also affects men's virility, so men are under great psychological pressure. So, if men want to treat it, what department should they go to? How to treat it? See some Chinese folk remedies recommended by the editor:

In the acute stage of orchitis treatment, patients should rest in bed and use cold compresses or cold water baths in the early stage. If the patient has obvious pain, appropriate analgesics can be used for treatment. Or systemic antibiotics can be used for treatment, which can eliminate inflammation in most cases. For patients with obvious swelling of the scrotal skin, wet hot compresses with drug solutions can be used to help the inflammation subside. If testicular abscess has already formed, consider extracting pus or incision drainage.

Western medicine generally does not play a very good role in the treatment of chronic orchitis. The antibiotic therapy used by Western medicine is not suitable for long-term use, and many other methods are only symptomatic and not fundamental.

From the overall efficacy point of view, the treatment of chronic orchitis in traditional Chinese medicine is more advantageous, with no side effects and more comprehensive consideration. For example, many Chinese medicine practitioners will reasonably add or subtract on the basis of Longdan Xiegan Decoction, or use some heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs to apply to the affected area, which can also have a therapeutic effect. There are also patients who directly take a complete Chinese medicine such as diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills orally, which can treat orchitis while also having a good effect on possible complications such as urethritis and prostatitis. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine is the best way to treat chronic orchitis and is recognized by many patients.

If you have orchitis and want to treat it, you should see a urologist or reproductive doctor if you are a Western doctor. If you see a Chinese doctor, there is no distinction between departments, and the effect of Chinese medicine in treating orchitis is far better than Western medicine. Therefore, after patients develop orchitis, they can see a Chinese doctor and take some medicine under the guidance of a Chinese doctor for syndrome differentiation and treatment.
