Patient's question:
Half a month ago, I had epididymitis and took two weeks of ciprofloxacin tablets. Today, I came to check my sperm quality, which is quite poor. Does the antibiotic affect sperm quality?Doctor's answer:
This disease is primarily caused by bacterial infection, with the main symptoms being pain and swollen epididymis. In severe cases, it can lead to a recurrence of fever. Currently, the main treatment involves the use of anti-inflammatory drugs, followed by nutritional support and encouragement therapy. Maintaining cleanliness and hygiene is essential. Epididymitis tends to recur, requiring long-term oral medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek professional and reputable medical diagnosis and consider treatment based on examination results.
