What’s the symptom of orchitis?

Testis is an important organ for male. Not only can it produce sperm, it also is a place for sperm to move. If one man has been told that he has orchitis after exam, it obviously is a huge shock to him. There is no doubt that many complications can be caused by left untreated orchitis, so if one doesn’t want to affect complications, he should figure out what orchitis is first and then treat it.

Commonly, orchitis can be classified into chronic and acute orchitis and the causes of orchitis are various too. There is no doubt that it can be caused by screws, parasites infection, mumps and testis syphilis. It also can be caused by injures on testis, for the partly or wholly exposure under radioisotope phosphorus can damage testis tissues and lead to orchitis too. What’s more, the acute orchitis can develop into chronic orchitis if it left untreated or treat with incomplete treatment.

Acute orchitis can be classified into nonspecific acute orchitis and specific acute orchitis. Nonspecific acute orchitis is caused by the spreading inflammation which can reach the testis at the end of urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia. Epididymo-orchitis is caused by inflammatory bacteria such as escherichia coli, proteus, staphylococcus aureus and pseudomonas aeruginosa, what can spread to epididymis by pass through lymph and seminiferous ducts. The normal orchitis which is rarely is caused by blood-spread bacteria, for the good blood circulation and lymph can stop inflammation strongly.

Its Symptoms are congestion, intension, testicular expanding, little abscess after cutting testis up, testis swelling, hardening, hyaline change and degeneration on seminiferous tubule or the disappearance of seminiferous tubule cells, focal necrosis, connective tissue edema, polymorphonuclear neutrophils infiltrating, and seminiferous tubule inflammation, bleeding, necrosis.

The risks of this disease are horrible. It can lead to dangerous diseases such as varicocele, prostatitis and seminal vesicle phlogistic, endocrine disease, nephritis and kidney disease, urinary infection disease, malignant tumor, which can destroy man’s health badly. It can deprive male’ sex ability and then deprive male’s reproductive ability, for the bacteria can be transmitted to wife via sex and can lead to gynecological diseases to wife to make female cannot get pregnant.

All in all, orchitis is very dangerous if men don’t treat it timely. They should take physical examination every year in case they miss the best treating time.

PS: the treatments can be antibiotic therapy and Diuretic andAnti-inflammatory Pill.
