Mild swelling and pain in both epididymides, normal ultrasound. How should it be treated?

Patient's question:

I am a male, 28 years old, and have no bad habits. However, I was recently diagnosed with orchitis. Now, I feel severe pain in my testicles every day, and sometimes I also have high fever. I am really struggling with this. Could you please tell me how to treat mild swelling and pain in both epididymides with normal ultrasound results?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the symptoms you described and the results of the two ultrasound examinations, the issue is not severe. In most cases, this situation is likely due to recent overexertion or a weakened immune system. It is recommended to pay attention to rest during this period, avoid overtime work, and adopt a lighter diet while ensuring internal relaxation and ventilation. For patients with epididymitis, they can take medication targeted at the symptoms while using dietary therapy as supplementary treatment in daily life. Proper dietary habits should be maintained to avoid stimulating foods.
