Patient's question:
Hello, I have testicular pain and a sensation of heaviness. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I have epididymitis. How should I treat it after developing epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, a comprehensive analysis suggests it may be prostatitis, epididymitis, or orchitis with swelling and pain. Anti-inflammatory drugs can be used for treatment, but they should be taken under the guidance of a local doctor. Additionally, you should take Pule'an tablets orally for combined treatment. You should go to a public hospital's urology department for examination. The doctor will conduct clinical diagnosis based on your symptoms and physical signs, along with auxiliary tests such as blood, urine, and stool tests, ultrasound, prostatic fluid culture, and drug sensitivity tests. After identifying the cause, targeted treatment will be provided. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly according to their symptoms and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
