Hello,
The filaria can be treated with medication. So complete the course of prescribed medications. The recurrence rate after treatment is low. The masturbation and sexual activities are better to avoid during the treatment period of Orchitis as per my opinion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
