Patient's question:
Usually, I haven't noticed anything wrong with my condition, but I didn't expect to be diagnosed with epididymitis this time. I'm currently undergoing treatment and would like to ask what precautions should be taken when suffering from epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
While undergoing active treatment, it is essential to pay close attention to rest and avoid overexertion. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and do not sit or stand for extended periods. Maintain a regular diet and daily routine to ensure deep and sufficient sleep. Wear loose underwear. Try to support the scrotum and prevent it from bending. Epididymitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek diagnosis at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
