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 do I treat this condition?Doctor's answer:
After the diagnosis of epididymitis, timely anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered. The course of the disease is generally around 10 days, during which a follow-up scrotal color Doppler ultrasound is necessary to monitor any changes in the blood flow signal of the epididymis. There is generally no strict specification for the dosage of levofloxacin; the specific dosage needs to be estimated based on body weight. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should adhere to medication and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
