Patient's question:
Left testicle has been aching and swollen recently. Could you please help me understand what this condition might be? How can I treat it if it's epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
The treatment for epididymitis includes specific treatment, general treatment, physical therapy (supporting the scrotum, local cold compress, hot Sitz baths, physiotherapy, etc., or directly using Tolmetin to alleviate symptoms). It is important to focus on a comprehensive evaluation treatment for prostatitis. If the local pain is severe, recurrent, and affects daily life and training, epididymectomy may be considered. Other treatments include dietary therapy, traditional Chinese medicine, etc. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for examination and determine the treatment method based on your condition. Epididymitis can be relieved, but the general treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
