What are the early symptoms of epididymitis?

Patient's question:

I am 45 years old. I have recently noticed some pain in my testicles, and I'm afraid it might be epididymitis. What are the initial symptoms of epididymitis?

Doctor's answer:

Acute orchitis in the early stage can be asymptomatic. The initial recurrence of orchitis is relatively rapid and severe, causing intense pain in the affected testicle and scrotum. Some may also experience chills, high fever, dry vomiting, nausea, or recurring redness, swelling, and tenderness in the genital area. If you suspect orchitis, it is recommended to visit a hospital for examination. Treatment plans should be confirmed based on the examination results. In daily life, pay attention to rest, avoid overwork and overtime, refrain from spicy and irritating foods, and avoid prolonged sitting. Develop good living habits.
