Patient's question:
During a health check-up, I found out that I have epididymal malformation. Now, I'm constantly overthinking and imagining this disease as something extremely (terrible). Because I have no understanding of this condition, I feel anxious and worried, unable to eat or sleep well. What should I pay attention to when I have epididymal malformation?Doctor's answer:
Clinical diagnosis of epididymal malformation is relatively common, usually referring to significant elongation of the epididymis or abnormal adhesion to the testis. To date, there is no precise definition or established classification method. Epididymal malformations can include structural abnormalities such as epididymal agenesis, segmental self-locking, and epididymal cysts. Epididymitis can be relieved, but the treatment duration is generally long, and recurrence is prone after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment, appropriate medication, a light diet, avoiding stimulating foods, and not smoking or drinking beer are essential.
