For acute orchitis in males, prompt pharmacological treatment is essential. Antibiotics such as cefoxitin sodium and cefuroxime sodium may be administered; intravenous therapy may also be employed to expedite recovery. During treatment, patients should drink ample warm water to promote urination and minimize physical activity as much as possible in the near term.
