Patient's question:
Doctor, I've been feeling lower abdominal pain recently, and it hasn't improved. The check-up revealed epididymitis. Which hospital is the best for treating epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis is a common non-specific infectious disease in the male reproductive system, more prevalent in middle-aged and young adults. When various reasons lead to a weakened immune resistance, pathogens can take advantage of the opportunity to infiltrate the epididymis, causing inflammation. It manifests as sudden pain in the scrotal area, swelling of the epididymis, significant tenderness, and may be accompanied by fever, epididymal hardening, etc. Inflammation of the epididymis can affect sperm maturation, increasing its fertilization capability; it can also lead to blockage of the epididymal ducts, impairing the long-range function of sperm. These factors can all result in clinical infertility. It is recommended that you promptly visit a formal urological hospital for a thorough examination to determine the condition, as diseases are constantly spreading.
