Patient's question:
I used to have epididymitis, the main symptoms being testicular pain, a sense of heaviness and fullness, and feeling tired and lacking energy. Which hospital is good for treating epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Chronic epididymitis is more common, and some patients develop it from incomplete recovery during the acute phase, but most patients do not have a clear acute phase. The inflammation is often secondary to chronic prostatitis or injury. Patients often experience a dull pain in the affected scrotum with a sense of fullness and heaviness, and the pain may radiate to the lower abdomen and the same inguinal region. In some cases, it can lead to secondary hydrocele. Upon careful examination, the epididymis is often reduced in size and hardened to varying degrees, with mild tenderness. The ipsilateral vas deferens may be thickened. It is recommended to seek prompt and professional medical attention for a thorough examination and treatment. In terms of diet, it is advisable to drink plenty of water, consume more fresh vegetables and fruits, and enhance the intake of vitamin C and other components to strengthen the body's anti-inflammatory capabilities.
