What should I do if the epididymis feels larger after ejaculation?

Patient's question:

Yesterday after ejaculation, I noticed that my epididymis feels larger. I had epididymitis three years ago, and it was checked half a month ago. I don't know what to do about this?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, if there is any discomfort or similar considerations, it could be a sign of orchitis. It is recommended to seek prompt and active treatment. Epididymitis can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. It is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness in the affected area, change underwear frequently, and use medication appropriately during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. Abstain from sexual activity during the treatment period.
