Patient's question:
Recently, the pressure has been so great that my body has started to have problems. The doctor says there is always a severe, unbearable pain near my testicles, and it feels like everything is sinking downwards. How should epididymitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
If the suspicion is of epididymitis, it is advisable to promptly undergo a thorough examination and diagnosis by a urologist and actively pursue anti-inflammatory treatment. It is recommended to consume more fresh vegetables and fruits to enhance the intake of components such as vitamin C, thereby improving the body's anti-inflammatory capabilities. Avoid foods like pig trotters, fish soup, and lamb to prevent increased secretion from the inflamed area. Apply local cold compresses, rest as much as possible, avoid prolonged standing, and refrain from consuming spicy and irritating foods. Epididymitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to seek medical attention at professional and reputable hospitals promptly and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and maintain good personal hygiene. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
