Patient's question:
The testicles have a mild pain sensation. The ultrasound result shows bilateral epididymal head cystic echoes: cyst? I have uploaded the ultrasound report. The ultrasound was done on August 2nd. The doctor said there was nothing wrong, but the testicles still have mild pain and a feeling of dropping. There is also mild pain in the lower abdomen. I have taken two boxes of amoxicillin-clavulanate potassium and it still hurts a bit. How can I promote blood circulation? Can I take painkillers? How long should I continue taking this anti-inflammatory medication? How can it be completely cured?Doctor's answer:
According to your ultrasound report and your physical examination findings, it is considered that you have epididymitis. The effect of your medication is not very good. It is recommended that you consider switching to a different treatment method instead of simply taking painkillers. If the cyst is not effectively treated with conservative treatment, surgery may be necessary. The epididymis can recover, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, during the treatment period, it is recommended to maintain a healthy lifestyle and have a proper diet.
