Patient's question:
Continuous high fever, and I'm particularly afraid of cold. At first, I thought it was just a cold, but then I noticed my testicles were getting more and more painful, and when I touched them, it felt like there was water inside. I went to the hospital for a check-up and was diagnosed with orchitis. Please ask: What are some good methods to treat epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis can be caused by long-term indwelling catheters, phimosis, urinary tract infections, urethral dilation, unsafe sex, and so on. Clinical diagnostic symptoms: sudden onset, recurrent localized pain in the epididymis, which can radiate to the groin and lower back. Physical examination: the epididymis appears uniformly slightly reduced, thickened, and hardened, with clear boundaries to the testis, without adhesion to the skin, and the vas deferens is mostly normal or slightly hardened. It is recommended that you undergo a thorough examination and follow medical advice for treatment, remove the cause, pay attention to hygiene of the external genitalia, avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and drinking, and pay attention to rest, etc. Wishing you good health.
