This testicular inflammation is generally one-sided (both testicles are swollen in 15–30% of mumps orchitis cases and typically occurs about 10 days after the parotid gland. Testicular swelling has been documented as late as six weeks after parotid gland swelling. Decreased fertility is an uncommon consequence of testicular inflammation from mumps and infertility is rare.

Can you be a carrier of mumps virus having had it before?

Yes, it is possible to be a carrier of the mumps virus even after having had the infection, although this is rare. After recovering from mumps, most individuals develop immunity and are unlikely to get reinfected or spread the virus. However, in some cases, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems, the virus can persist in certain tissues and potentially be transmitted. Vaccination is the best way to prevent mumps and its spread.
