Patient's question:
I got epididymitis in May, and my left testicle has been uncomfortable. It has been recurring since then until now. Recently, I have been undergoing intravenous treatment, and three days ago, a follow-up test showed that the inflammation has subsided. I have also taken some medication during this period and am still taking traditional Chinese medicine, but I still feel uncomfortable. Over the past few months, there have been a few instances of sexual intercourse and nocturnal emissions. Once, it got better after nocturnal emission, but it flared up again afterward. The symptoms also include discomfort in the groin, lower back, and the area connecting them. However, a careful examination shows no inflammation, but I still feel uncomfortable. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
