Does epididymitis affect infertility?

Patient's question:

I'm very anxious to find out that I have been diagnosed with epididymitis. This disease is something I've really not encountered much before. I want to ask what should I do if I have epididymitis?

Doctor's answer:

Men who do not pay attention to protecting their reproductive system in daily life are very likely to experience recurrent epididymitis. After a recurrence of epididymitis, patients not only feel testicular pain and heat, swelling, but it is also very easy to involve local tissues, and even affect fertility. The patient vaguely remembers taking oral traditional Chinese medicine diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills. Rest on schedule and avoid overtime work. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in time, it will affect the condition of the body. The patient should take oral medication in a timely manner, and maintain regular sexual life in daily life to prevent prolonged sitting.
