Patient's question:
Hello, I have pain in my testicles and a feeling 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, or seminal vesiculitis, with the retrograde route being the most common mode of infection. Epididymitis can also develop after urethral instrumentation or prolonged indwelling catheterization, especially when the male body's resistance is low. Escherichia 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.
