Patient's question:
I have had a high fever for 2 days, and I am particularly afraid of cold. At first, I thought it was just a cold, but then I noticed that my testicles were getting more and more painful, and when I touched them, it felt like there was water inside. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with orchitis. Please ask: How can epididymitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
There are several medications available for treating epididymitis, but the treatment effect is slow, and the course of treatment is long, so medication alone is not recommended. Epididymitis is divided into acute and chronic epididymitis based on the cause, so the treatment focus also varies. If you have epididymitis, you should seek medical advice at a formal hospital for follow-up to confirm the most effective medication. Wishing you good health! For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
