Patient's question:
How is epididymitis treated. He has acute epididymitis. Hello expert, how can it be treated quickly? I want him to get better soonDoctor's answer:
Epididymitis is often caused by the spread of infection from adjacent organs. It is characterized by sudden pain in the scrotal area, swelling of the epididymis, significant tenderness, and may be accompanied by fever, hardening of the epididymis, etc. Acute epididymitis is often secondary to infections of the urethra, prostate, or seminal vesicle, while chronic epididymitis is usually a result of incomplete treatment during the acute phase. Epididymitis can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medications must be used symptomatically during treatment, and patients should also maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and refrain from smoking and drinking beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
