How to treat chronic unilateral epididymitis more effectively?

Patient's question:

Unilateral epididymitis often causes swelling and pain in the testicle, and there is a fear of serious consequences. I would like to ask how to treat chronic unilateral epididymitis most effectively?

Doctor's answer:

Epididymitis, after formation, is relatively small in area because the epididymis itself is a tubular structure that is both twisted and long. If epididymitis reoccurs, the patient will be affected by various obvious inflammatory influences. As the size of the swelling becomes more severe later on, it may even directly lead to complete obstruction of the tubules in the epididymal area, resulting in male infertility. Therefore, timely treatment is necessary.
