Patient's question:
I'm very anxious and don't understand why I would get male epididymitis. I've been taking Western medicine for treatment, but it doesn't seem to be working well, and I'm a bit frustrated. I'd like to ask, what Chinese medicine is used for male epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
Recurrent epididymitis is mostly caused by inflammation, requiring anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct thorough examinations such as a urine test or prostatic fluid analysis to identify the underlying cause before determining the appropriate treatment and specific medications. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
