Five Ways To Help You Get Tested For Orchitis

Orchitis is a common disease of the male reproductive system, usually caused by bacterial and viral infections. Common pathogenic bacteria are staphylococcus, streptococcus, colibacillus and so on.
 
It is necessary to find out the existence of a certain disease as soon as possible. So how can you detect orchitis effectively? There are 5 ways to help you get tested for orchitis.

 
1. Self-test for testis
 
You can do it by yourself at home. During the test, the patient should wash both hands and stand on both feet, allowing the scrotum to relax. Feel the testicles with your hand and look for any lumps or other abnormalities. The normal testis is ovoid with smooth surface and medium hardness. If you feel something wrong, you are suggested to go see a doctor for further tests.
 
2. Local findings
 
After bilateral intrascrotal mass, benign and malignant lesions can be roughly distinguished. After testicular tumor is suspected, local puncture biopsy of testicular tumor should not be performed, because it is easy to cause tumor metastasis. Generally, the determination of the nature of testicular tumor depends on the pathologic report after surgery.
 
3. B-ultrasound examination
 
B-ultrasound examination is used for many situations, and it is able to detect testicular pathological changes. Through this method, doctors can more accurately determine the size and shape of testis, and whether there is tumor or not. Patients with cryptorchidism can also understand the testis development and whether there are testis enlargement and malignant changes through B-ultrasound examination.
 
4. Blood test
 
It is usually the blood test for chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and alpha fetoprotein (AFP). Normally, the HCG is less than 5 MCG/L, and the AFP is less than 25 MCG/L. If the results are above normal, further examination should be performed.
 
5. X-ray, CT or MRI
 
If it is necessary, examinations like X-ray, CT or MRI can be performed to accurately understand the presence of retroperitoneal metastasis, which are particularly beneficial for patients who have not yet undergone cryptorchidism removal and may have malignant transformation.

 
If you are unfortunately diagnosed with orchitis, you should get treated in time. Orchitis can be cured, but if you delay the treatment, it will turn into a chronic disease, making it harder to improve. Usually, chronic orchitis is caused by incomplete treatment of non-specific acute orchitis in male friends. So what can you do?
 
Luckily, the herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill produced by Dr. Lee Xiaoping is a widely accepted option for patients with chronic orchitis.
 
As a pure Chinese herbal medicine, the pill can be used to treat various urogenital problems like prostatitis, orchitis, seminal vesiculitis, epididymitis and so on. Moreover, it has no side effects due to its selected natural ingredients. So it can effectively help male friends get rid of chronic orchitis during the long-term treatment.
 
To make sure the pill works well, you should also pay attention to personal hygiene, sexual life and a healthy daily diet during the treatment. Keep a good mood, and you can defeat the disease eventually.
