Patient's question:
While taking a shower, I noticed some small white spots on my epididymis. There's no sensation, so why is that?Doctor's answer:
How is epididymitis treated? Acute epididymitis should be treated with appropriate rest, antibiotics, and general analgesics. Local measures such as cold compresses, physical therapy, and scrotal support can be effective. If an abscess forms, it may require incision and drainage. Treatment with antibiotics alone is often not effective; the epididymitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during the treatment.
