    Low back pain coupled with testicular pain may be caused by factors such as acute orchitis, acute epididymitis, varicocele, etc. The cause must be clarified and treated symptomatically.

    1. Acute orchitis

    Acute orchitis is mainly caused by bacterial and viral infections. It manifests as fever, chills, testicular pain, and swelling. When the pain is obvious, it will radiate to the waist, resulting in low back pain and testicular pain. It can be treated with doxycycline hydrochloride tablets, ofloxacin capsules, cefuroxime axetil tablets and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

    2. Acute epididymitis

    Acute epididymitis is an acute non-specific inflammation of cryptorchidism, which manifests as rapid swelling of the scrotum with pain, as well as symptoms such as dysuria, frequent urination, high fever, and low back pain. Azithromycin tablets, cefixime capsules, aspirin enteric-coated tablets and other drug treatments need to be used under the guidance of a doctor.

    3. Varicocele

    Varicocele is a functional disease, which may be caused by venous return disorder and venous valve insufficiency. It manifests as scrotal enlargement with swelling and dull pain, and may also be accompanied by low back pain, so the above symptoms occur. Drugs such as diosmin tablets, sodium aescin tablets, and ibuprofen sustained-release capsules can be used under the guidance of a doctor. If necessary, high spermatic vein ligation is required.

    In addition to the above reasons, there may also be specific causes such as ureteral stones and upper urinary tract stones, which can then be treated accordingly.
