Patient's question:
I've had this for about a month now. There's a soft lump in my right epididymis, and it feels better when I'm lying down, but it hurts when I stand for a long time. It also radiates pain to my groin area. I've visited two hospitals, and the doctors at both couldn't find anything wrong. I had an ultrasound twice, and both results were normal, with no lump detected. But I'm very anxious. At the second hospital, there was only one doctor treating patients, seeing 40 to 50 people a day. I waited in line for an hour, and the doctor just touched my testicles and said it was epididymitis, giving me Cefadroxil to take. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be a symptom of varicose veins on the right side, which is often caused by long-term pressure on the testicles and frequent blood flow. Therefore, it is recommended that you visit a urologist for examination. If the varicose veins are not severe, they can be treated with medication. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect your overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
