Patient's question:
A few days ago, I had a cold, so I thought the fever and chills were just due to the cold. But the fever didn't go down, and I suspect I might have epididymitis. I don't know how I could have suddenly gotten this disease. Could you please tell me what factors can cause epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Disease Transmission: We know that the male urethra is an easy place to store bacteria. Many daily bacteria can reappear in the male urethra, which can then lead to the recurrence of many inflammations, including acute orchitis. Among male diseases, inflammation is still quite common, and orchitis can be considered one of them. Many men suffer from varying degrees of orchitis. Mild orchitis is often unnoticeable and poses no significant harm, but severe orchitis is particularly harmful.
