Patient's question:
For a while now, my testicles have been slightly swollen and aching. Recently, they've started to hurt, especially when touched, and it's particularly severe. It seems the other side is also somewhat swollen. I'm very worried. Please ask: How can I prevent epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is recommended to prevent prolonged sitting or standing during daily life practice, ensure sufficient rest and deep sleep, avoid overtime work, do not overexert yourself, and do not eat spicy or irritating foods. Drink more water, urinate frequently, and do not hold your urine. Epididymitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication intake. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Also, pay attention to a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
