How Can Orchitis Be Treated?
Hi. I ve been diagnosed with orchitis. My testes, testes, (one, two, ahhh three?!?) are very Swollen, I ve been treated with antibiotics. I was given an infosheet that says orchitis may be caused by sti s and high risk sex, or multiple partners, etc. (Maybe I should be talking to my lawyer lol...) I only have one partner. There is nothing highrisk about my sex life... Except maybe my partner, who is my wife; so far. Im 60 yrs old, amazingly physical and healthy for my age. So how did I get this? Thank you. I appreciate your time... God Bless
