Can epididymitis still be treated?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've always felt pain in my testicles, and this week alone I've had a fever 10 times. Usually, I feel cold, and when I take a shower, I touch my testicles and feel like there's a lot of liquid inside. Please ask: can testicular inflammation still be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Testicular inflammation is generally caused by bacteria and viruses. It is primarily treated with physical therapies such as bed rest, local cold compresses, and elevating the scrotum to reduce pain. Anti-inflammatory treatments can also be used, such as with azithromycin. Avoid wearing jeans frequently. Pay attention to genital hygiene and have restrained sexual activity. Testicular inflammation tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals promptly, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, maintain restrained sexual activity, keep a positive mood, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
