Does swelling come and go with orchitis? swells when i sit or stand. was diagnosed a week ago at er.

Orchitis: Are you on antibiotics? I would follow up with a urologist usually after 1 week of antibiotics the organ/area with an infection should be back to baseline so if you have persisting issues at this point you need further evaluation.
