Inflammation"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p><strong>Testicular inflammation<\/strong> can cause you pain in the scrotum, fever, and feel ill.&nbsp;Seek medical attention at a medical center or emergency room if you suddenly get a sore throat.&nbsp;It is important that you be examined to find out what the pain is due to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is unusual, but that it hurts the scrotum maybe because the testicle has twisted.&nbsp;Testicular twisting happens more often in younger people than in adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Symptoms of testicular inflammation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is common to have one or more of the following symptoms if you have testicular inflammation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The scrotum has swollen and hurts.<\/li><li>You feel really sick.<\/li><li>You get a&nbsp;fever.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes the inflammation may be due to a&nbsp;urinary tract infection.&nbsp;Then you can also have trouble while you are kissing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can I do to reduce the risk of testicular inflammation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can reduce the risk by protecting yourself from the diseases that can lead to <em>testicular inflammation<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Protect yourself from&nbsp;bite-sized inflammation&nbsp;by using a&nbsp;condom&nbsp;during intercourse.<\/li><li>Protect yourself against&nbsp;mumps&nbsp;by vaccinating you.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When and where should I seek care?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact a&nbsp;health care center&nbsp;if you develop a gradual swelling or tenderness of the scrotum, or have other symptoms of testicular inflammation.&nbsp;You can contact many receptions by&nbsp;logging in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If it&#8217;s in a hurry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Seek treatment directly at a cost center or&nbsp;on-call reception&nbsp;if you suddenly get a sore throat and it does not go away within minutes.&nbsp;In that case, there may be <em>symptoms of&nbsp;testicular torsion<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surveys<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The doctor will check if the soreness and swelling are in the testicles or bites.&nbsp;It does them by feeling the scrotum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test to exclude other diseases<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You are usually given tests that answer if you have&nbsp;gonorrhea,&nbsp;chlamydia,&nbsp;or&nbsp;urinary tract infection.&nbsp;These are diseases that can lead to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">testicular inflammation<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some samples give answers directly, while other samples may need to be sent to a laboratory.&nbsp;You usually get a response from the doctor within a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A blood test to measure the dip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may also be given a&nbsp;blood test to measure the CRP value.&nbsp;That test is also called a quick sink.&nbsp;The test shows if you have inflammation.&nbsp;The test response usually takes a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You may need to make an ultrasound<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The patient may need to be examined with\u00a0ultrasound, for example, if the doctor has difficulty determining whether the pain is due to an inflammation of the testicle, or something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this case, you will then receive a\u00a0referral\u00a0to an X-ray doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You should be able to understand the information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order for you to be able to participate in your care and make decisions, it is important that you understand the information you receive from the healthcare staff.&nbsp;Ask questions if you don&#8217;t understand.&nbsp;You can also ask to have the information printed so that you can read it peacefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have the right to get help from an interpreter if you have a hearing loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Treatment of testicular inflammation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no <em>treatment of testicular inflammation<\/em> if the inflammation is due to a virus.&nbsp;The inflammation can then heal itself.&nbsp;There are things that relieve in the meantime.&nbsp;For example, you can try using a suspension, it can help if the scrotum aches and weights.&nbsp;You can also relieve the pain with non-prescription tablets containing paracetamol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Treatment with antibiotics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You are treated with\u00a0antibiotics\u00a0if testicular inflammation is caused by bacteria.\u00a0Painkillers can also be given..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You usually take antibiotics for two to three weeks.&nbsp;Most people usually feel better after three days.&nbsp;But it is important not to stop taking antibiotics, even if the symptoms disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may become very ill if the inflammation has started with a urinary tract infection.&nbsp;Then you may initially need hospital care for a few days and get antibiotics directly into your bloodstream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Re-visit after a couple of weeks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may come back again after a few weeks.&nbsp;Then the doctor examines that the inflammation has healed properly.&nbsp;Often the scrotum is less swollen and then you do not need to come back for more examinations.&nbsp;Sometimes the bite or testicle can be a little swollen, firm, and sore for a long time after inflammation, which in rare cases can lead to further medical examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The testicles are two glands in the scrotum.&nbsp;They produce sperm and sex hormones.&nbsp;Inflammation of the testicles is almost always due to the fact that inflammation of the bite particles has spread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inflammation of the bites&nbsp;is usually due to the fact that bacteria, such as chlamydia, have spread from the urethra via the semen to the testicle or bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Testicular inflammation may also be due to&nbsp;mumps&nbsp;caused by a virus.&nbsp;You are protected against that type of testicular inflammation if you are vaccinated against mumps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Complications and sequelae<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bacterial inflammation due to bacteria rarely leads to any complications.&nbsp;Testicular inflammation due to viruses can sometimes lead to sterility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Testicular inflammation can cause you pain in the scrotum, fever and feel ill.
