In life, some immune functions are relatively low, and people do not pay attention to personal hygiene, which can easily lead to orchitis. Patients often have fever, and abdominal pain is very obvious. We should know more about the cause at ordinary times. So, what are the main points of examination for orchitis?
Blood transmission
Men are vulnerable to diseases such as mumps and tonsillitis due to their weak physique and low immunity, and these diseases will circulate to the male epididymis through blood, leading to epididymitis. This in turn produces orchitis.
bacterial infection
The common cause of orchitis is bacterial infection. Experts said that there are mainly Proteus, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus. These pathogenic bacteria usually enter the urinary tract through the urethra, and then cause urethritis, cystitis and prostatitis, and then invade the epididymis and testis through the lymphatic system or through the vas deferens lumen, causing epididymis orchitis.
Bacterial infection is mainly divided into three categories
1. Direct infection: infection of prostate and seminal vesicle. Bacteria enter the epididymis and testis along the vas deferens.
2. Hematological infection: The infection flows from the focus of the body to the testis through blood.
3. Lymphatic infection: Infectious bacteria from the lower urinary tract and external genitalia can enter the deep and shallow lymphatic vessels through the lymphatic vessels of the seminal vesicle to cause infection.
Scrotal injury
If the male scrotum is damaged, it will lead to hematoma in the male scrotum, testis and epididymis. The epididymis is fragile and easy to get sick, so acute epididymitis often occurs. Acute epididymitis can transmit inflammation to the testis and cause orchitis, but this is rare. Sometimes the operation of intraurethral instruments or long-term indwelling of catheter can also cause orchitis.
Inspection points of orchitis
Testitis has great harm to the physical health of male friends, and also to the family of male friends. So when male friends have orchitis, they need to go to the regular treatment center for treatment as soon as possible.
1. May cause loss of sexual function: orchitis can lead to the decline of male sexual function, or even complete loss of sexual function, bringing difficulties to the life of couples.
2. Induce "dangerous" diseases: orchitis is easy to induce various serious diseases, such as varicocele, static choritis, prostatitis, endocrine diseases, nephritis and other kidney diseases, urinary infection diseases, malignant tumors, etc., which seriously threaten the life of men.
3. Sperm damage and kidney deficiency: other orchitis, if not cured for a long time, can easily cause sperm damage and kidney deficiency, loss of vitality, severe cold of limbs, backache and early aging.
4. Loss of fertility: orchitis can also lead to death of sperm, insemination, loss of fertility, and infection of inflammatory bacteria to spouses, resulting in gynecological diseases, and great harm to the wife's health.
Orchitis medicine health care
1. Treatment of bacterial orchitis: procaine penicillin is usually used, 800000 units per time, twice a day, intramuscular injection. Or gentamicin, 80000 units each time, twice a day, intramuscular injection, for 5-7 days. After the inflammation has been controlled, oral antibacterial drugs, such as cephalosporin, cotrimoxazole or ofloxacin, are used instead.
2. Health care with traditional Chinese medicine: the treatment principle is to clear heat and detoxify, and to eliminate liver and fire. The drugs include gentian, bupleurum, phellodendron, scutellaria, plantain seed, alisma orientalis, etc. In case of viral orchitis, traditional Chinese medicine such as honeysuckle, forsythia, isatis indigotica, black ginseng, dandelion and indigo naturalis can be used. Or use the traditional Chinese medicine preparation Banlangen injection, 2ml each time, 1-2 times a day, intramuscular injection.
3. External medicine: red bean powder and duck egg white are applied externally to the scrotum, or yellow Ruyi powder is mixed with vinegar and then applied externally to the scrotum, 1-2 times a day, which can reduce pain and help reduce swelling of the testis.
