Orchitis is a disease that puzzles many men. So, for orchitis, what causes this kind of disease? I think many people are eager to know. Therefore, let's learn about the cause of orchitis with you to prevent it accordingly.
What are the causes of orchitis?
Reason 1: the common pathogenic bacteria of orchitis mainly include Escherichia coli, proteus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In addition, Neisseria gonorrhoeae or chlamydia are also common pathogenic microorganisms. Pathogenic bacteria enter the urinary tract through the urethra, leading to urethritis, cystitis, and
prostatitis, which invades the epididymis and testis through the lymphatic system or the lumen of the vas deferens. Cause epididymitis.
Reason 2: when tonsillitis, mumps, teeth, or systemic infection, bacteria or viruses can enter the blood circulation, resulting in orchitis, which mainly occurs when the immune capacity of the body decreases.
Reason 3: after scrotal injury, there may be a scrotal, epididymal, and testicular hematoma, followed by acute epididymal moxibustion, but it is not a common cause. Sometimes, the operation of instruments in the urethra or long-term indwelling of the urinary catheter can also cause orchitis.
Living environment and bad habits will also provoke it:
1. Environmental factors: men who have long-term cycling, sitting, and other bad habits will directly oppress the scrotum. In addition, tight pants will also make the male scrotum in a high-temperature and humid environment for a long time. These habits will lead to the growth of bacteria in the body and the disease of testicular inflammation
2. Disease infection: when men suffer from a urinary tract infection, they will be easily infected if they do not go to the hospital for treatment in time. Disease infection includes urethritis, prostate, seminal vesiculitis, epididymitis, and other diseases, which requires men to pay attention to treatment after suffering from this disease
3. Bad living habits: bad living habits are also the cause of male orchitis. These bad habits include frequent smoking, drinking, staying up late, working overtime, etc. These are all bad habits
There are many reasons for male infection with orchitis, including unprotected sexual life, lack of attention to reproductive organ health, environmental factors, disease infection, bad living habits, etc. These are the causes of the disease. Of course, no matter what the reason is, they should be treated.
The treatment of orchitis needs to be determined according to the cause of the infection. The common causes of disease are bacterial infection and virus infection. It is suggested to select sensitive antibiotics for treatment according to the cultured bacteria.
Bacterial infection is mostly caused by urinary tract infection, urethral obstruction, and then reflux, causing epididymitis and orchitis. Broad-spectrum antibiotics are recommended, and cephalosporins can be selected.
If it is a nonbacterial infection or combined with epididymitis, men can choose natural medicine
Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill for treatment. It can eliminate symptoms and causes, improve the ability of patients to resist bacteria, and reduce the probability of recurrence.
If it is a secondary viral infection, such as secondary orchitis after mumps, antiviral treatment is required, antiviral agents can be selected to observe the improvement of symptoms.
If orchitis is not treated, what effects will it cause?
Pain: the occurrence of orchitis will cause discomfort in the male prostate and urethra and testicular pain, accompanied by radiation pain in the scrotum, thigh root, and perineum. The pain will make patients have anxiety and tension and inhibit the sexual desire of patients to a certain extent.
Affect sexual function: even if some patients have no obvious pain symptoms, orchitis will continue to spread and invade adjacent parts, make continuous impotence develop so they can't erect in the end. In this case, men will be depressed, and affect their work and life. In the long run, the partner can not be satisfied in the sexual life, resulting in the breakdown of the relationship.
Cause infertility: After men suffer from orchitis, they can also induce varicocele and endocrine diseases and lead to dead sperm and azoospermia. If patients do not pay attention to this disease or can not get a cure for a long time, it is easy to cause essence loss, kidney loss, vitality loss, low back pain, and a series of diseases. Coupled with the lack of sexual life, it can also lead to men's loss of fertility.
Orchitis can also cause gynecological diseases in women. It can be seen that orchitis has a significant impact, and its symptoms are pretty obvious. It is suggested that when suffering from such diseases, men should pay attention to see a regular professional hospital as soon as possible.
