Patient's question:
Got epididymitis, the medicine worked, but it keeps coming back. It's just a bit uncomfortable. The hospital did a color ultrasound and found no obvious abnormalities in the testicles, epididymis, or spermatic cord. I know what to do now. How can I diagnose whether I really have epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis is more common in young and middle-aged adults. It is often caused by the spread of prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis along the vas deferens to the epididymis. Acute epididymitis occurs suddenly, accompanied by fever, swelling and a heavy sensation in the scrotum on one side, radiating pain in the abdomen and groin, which intensifies when standing or walking. When the condition is more extensive, both the testis and epididymis may become swollen. In addition to active treatment, patients with epididymitis need to pay attention to maintaining a proper diet in daily life to digest and absorb nutrients. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
