Patient's question:
The current symptoms are swollen testicles with pain, making it difficult to walk. Currently, I am lying at home. Previous tests indicated epididymitis. How should acute epididymitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis is a very common male reproductive system disease. Generally, epididymitis can be mainly divided into two types: acute and chronic. Let's first talk about the main manifestations of acute epididymitis when it occurs. Acute epididymitis occurs suddenly, and the patient may experience low fever. At the same time, the patient's white blood cells may suddenly decrease. The scrotum at the affected area will also experience pain, and the testicle at the affected area will be swollen. When pressed, a clear sense of pain can be felt. However, acute symptoms usually gradually subside after a week. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the occurrence. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it will affect the physical condition.
