How long does it take to fully recover after surgical treatment for epididymitis?

Patient's question:

Hello, I have testicular pain and a sensation of heaviness. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said I have epididymitis. How long does it take to fully recover from surgical treatment for epididymitis?

Doctor's answer:

Recovery after orchitis surgery requires a certain amount of time. Generally, it takes about 1-2 months. Rest more after surgery, strictly prohibit sexual activity, and pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the groin area to prevent infection. Orchitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment immediately at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Also, quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
