Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my testicles are quite painful and have a heavy sensation. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was told that I have epididymitis. How can epididymitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis should be discontinued from sexual intercourse and sexual activity during treatment to prevent the exacerbation of inflammation caused by congestion of the reproductive organs. Moreover, if epididymitis is not cured for a long time, it can interfere with sexual function and fertility. It is recommended to stop sexual activity promptly and follow medical advice for treatment. Epididymitis can be stabilized with treatment, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
