Patient's question:
I have mild varicocele, orchitis, and epididymitis that have not improved. I have taken various types of antibiotics, including cephalexin, but nothing has worked. It has been almost a year now, and I still frequently experience premature ejaculation. Exerting physical labor causes pain in the scrotum that radiates down to the waist, making it exhausting. Resting is better, but I want to get better quickly. I am 21 and have a history of masturbation for 2 years. What kind of medicine should I take?Previous Treatment and Effects: I have taken medications like azithromycin and cephalexin, but none have worked. Initially, cephalexin reduced the pain, but it didn’t go away completely.
Desired Help: I want to get better—I’m only 21. What kind of medicine should I take?
Doctor's answer:
Mild varicocele, if the symptoms are not severe, does not necessarily require treatment. Severe cases can be surgically treated. Most cases of epididymitis are aseptic inflammation, similar to prostatitis. You can check the prostatic fluid; if there are white blood cells, you can use levofloxacin. Male reproductive diseases can be very serious, and it is recommended that patients seek immediate treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition. The above answer is hoped to be helpful to you. Thank you.
