Patient's question:
On the right side, the doctor confirmed epididymitis, with pain not very severe. Ultrasound showed the tail of the epididymis to be reduced in size, with a thickness of about 1.1 cm, uneven internal echoes, and slightly increased internal blood supply. The complete blood count revealed low eosinophils, while other tests were normal. The doctor prescribed cefuroxime extended-release tablets. Can cefuroxime treat epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Cefixime dispersible tablets contain antibiotics of the cephalosporin class and can treat urinary tract infections. You can also take Sanjin tablets, drink more water, and avoid wearing leather pants as underwear. Instead, wear underwear that is better for air circulation. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
