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. Since yesterday, the epididymitis has flared up again. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Mumps is caused by a viral infection, and it is most common in males to develop complications such as orchitis or pancreatitis. It is essential to rest well and get a urine test. The main treatment is antiviral and symptomatic care. Additionally, you must stay in bed and use warm towels or cold compresses for at least a week. Male genitourinary conditions can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope that male patients can recover quickly.
