Patient's question:
Epididymitis interferes with the quantity or quality of sperm? Do antibiotics (fluoroquinolone tablets) interfere with sperm quality?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to follow medical advice and use quinolone or cephalosporin antibiotics for treatment. If symptoms are severe, seek medical treatment at a hospital. Rest appropriately, apply cold compresses locally, undergo physical therapy, and use scrotal supports to hold the scrotum. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
