Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have testicular pain and a sensation of heaviness. The hospital examination said I have epididymitis. How should I treat epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
You should first treat epididymitis, as impotence and premature ejaculation may be related to this condition. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. You can use Bupleurum, Radix Paeoniae Rubra, Fructus Meliae, Coptis Rhizoma, Semen Litchi, Semen Ponciri, Alisma, Artemisia Scoparia, Gentiana Macrophylla, Plantago, and Licorice. Boil them in water and drink the decoction. Persisting with this treatment will help cure the epididymitis. If there is significant local pain, you can combine it with cold compress therapy to treat epididymitis, which can lead to recovery. However, the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to use medications that match your symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
