Patient's question:
Do I need to have complete numbness after the treatment for epididymitis? Also, how long after recovery can I have children?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis can cause swelling, pain, and discomfort in the epididymis. Generally, anti-inflammatory medication is required. During acute inflammation, cold compresses are recommended. It is advisable to avoid spicy and stimulating foods, as well as pornography and other forms of visual stimulation. Full recovery usually takes about 3 months, so it is best to wait before considering having children. Epididymitis can be stabilized, but the treatment duration is often long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, proper medication, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet during treatment are essential. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
