Patient's question:
A bit helpless, since getting chronic epididymitis, I've been experiencing frequent urination and discomfort. I want to know how chronic epididymitis is treated with traditional Chinese medicine?Doctor's answer:
Orchitis and epididymitis in traditional Chinese medicine fall under the category of scrotal abscess. The onset is sudden, which can cause pain, swelling, and distension in the scrotum. The pain may also radiate to other areas, such as the groin, lower abdomen, and perineum. Patients may experience fever. Oral traditional Chinese medicine diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills should be taken in conjunction with adequate rest and maintaining good lifestyle habits. Epididymitis can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, medication must be used according to symptoms during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to maintain good lifestyle habits and have a proper diet during the treatment period.
