Patient's question:
Hello, I have testicular pain and a sensation of heaviness. The doctor said I have epididymitis. What are the dangers of epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis can also lead to dead sperm, azoospermia, infertility, and transmit inflammatory bacteria to close relatives, causing gynecological diseases, and bringing great harm to the wife. It affects sexual quality. Epididymitis almost has no impact on sexual function. However, due to long-term inflammation stimulation, the epididymis may harden. During sexual intercourse when reaching orgasm, the epididymis and vas deferens contract to expel sperm, which can cause pain again. Sometimes the pain may persist for a while after intercourse, leading to dangerous diseases.
