Patient's question:
There's a small lump on my testicle that hurts. I went for a color Doppler ultrasound today, and the doctor said the epididymis is enlarged but it's nothing serious. However, it still hurts. The doctor said taking medication won't help and that it's fine just to leave it as is. What should I do? What should I pay attention to in daily life? What kind of medication should I take?Doctor's answer:
If the condition is not severe, surgery is generally not required. Medication or physical therapy can be sufficient, and intravenous drips may be administered. If the condition is severe, the quality of sperm may also be affected, and surgery may be necessary. Currently, a thorough examination has not been conducted, so the specific condition is not yet clear.It is recommended to drink more water, avoid digestive issues, enhance nutrition, eat more vegetables and fruits, and gradually recover without worrying. Maintain good hygiene. The testicles can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication must be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, it is advised to adopt a healthy lifestyle during the treatment period.
