Patient's question:
Hello, I have testicular pain and a sensation of heaviness. The doctor said I have epididymitis. What should I do with epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis is a common disease among young and middle-aged adults, often occurring after posterior urethritis, prostatitis, and seminal vesiculitis, with the most common route of infection being retrograde. Epididymitis can also develop after urethral instrumentation or prolonged indwelling catheterization, especially when the male body's resistance is low. E. coli and Staphylococcus are common pathogens, so anti-infection treatment should be administered. Pay close attention to personal hygiene. Maintain a positive mood. Don't worry about this disease. It is important to cooperate with the doctor and actively treat it. Drink plenty of water. Avoid standing or sitting for long periods.
