Patient's question:
Got epididymitis, the medicine has worked, but it always comes back and forth. It's just a little 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. I'm asking which methods are effective for treating epididymitis.Doctor's answer:
Hello, you can perform an ultrasound examination: Magnetic resonance imaging is of great value in the diagnosis of acute epididymitis, especially in differential diagnosis. In chronic epididymitis, the ultrasound shows diffuse and uniform swelling of the epididymis; it can also present with local swelling, seen at the tail, nodular, spherical, with uneven echoes, thickened points, lower sound intensity than the testis, blurred boundaries, and may be adhered to the scrotal wall, with thickened tunica vaginalis, hydrocele, and thickened spermatic cord, varicocele. Liquid analysis is also an important examination method. For patients, if the orchitis condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment is necessary. Appropriate medication can lead to recurrent epididymitis. In addition, patients need to maintain a positive mood and avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers to the above questions can help everyone. Thank you.
