Patient's question:
I feel unwell, went to the hospital for a check-up, what should I do? I can't have sex anymore, how can the treatment be more effective?Doctor's answer:
To understand how to treat epididymitis, it is necessary to have a certain understanding of epididymitis. Early epididymitis is a that starts in the ejaculatory duct and spreads to the tail of the epididymis. During the acute phase, the epididymis swells and becomes hard, with infection spreading from the tail to the head of the epididymis. On pathological sections, small abscesses can be seen, and the tunica vaginalis often exudes a large amount of serous fluid (inflammatory epididymal hydrocele). The condition of epididymitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication maintenance. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to immediately go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis, and treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Also, attention should be paid to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood. Finally, I wish all patients a speedy recovery.
