Patient's question:
Hello, I have testicular pain and a feeling of heaviness. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I have epididymitis. How can I treat epididymitis well?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis is an inflammation of the testicles caused by the testicles. In most cases, it is caused by the progression of testicular diseases. Due to the stimulation of inflammation, the testicles may experience pain again. Moreover, having orchitis can severely damage male testicular function, reducing the ability of the testicles to produce sperm. If not treated promptly, it may lead to male infertility.Recommendation: Antibiotics are ineffective against viral orchitis and require the use of traditional Chinese medicine for syndrome differentiation and treatment. For oral fluoroquinolone-induced epididymitis, the condition tends to recur frequently, requiring long-term medication.
