Based on the diagnostic evidence, symptoms include high fever, chills, testicular pain, localized scrotal redness and swelling, testicular enlargement, and a decrease in blood white cells, which severely affect physical and mental health. Therefore, active treatment should be provided for individuals with epididymitis. The treatment principle for epididymitis patients is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, requiring bed rest, elevation of the scrotum, local cold compresses, physical therapy, and inguinal to reduce pain. If an abscess forms, it should be drained through incision.Avoid spicy and irritating foods, smoking, and drinking beer.
