Doctor's answer:
If you have epididymitis, active treatment should be provided. The principle of treating epididymitis is to use antibiotics to reduce inflammation. Rest in bed, elevate the scrotum, apply local cold compresses and physical therapy, and use spermatic cord isolation anesthesia to reduce pain. If an abscess forms, it should be drained through incision.Avoid spicy and irritating foods, smoking, and drinking beer. Do not stand or sit for long periods, have excessive sexual activity, or engage in frequent sexual intercourse. Instead, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to increase the intake of vitamin C and other nutrients, which can help boost your body's anti-inflammatory ability.
For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect your health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
