Can bilateral epididymitis be treated?

Patient's question:

The lower ends of both testicles have hard lumps for three years. The specific reason three years ago is unclear. The history of previous treatment and its effectiveness: Good, no treatment. Can it be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Epididymitis can be cured. Epididymitis requires identifying the cause.
Recommendation: If the patient comes back for follow-up within 24 hours of onset, applying 20ml of 1% procaine or lidocaine for local anesthesia to the spermatic cord above the testicle may completely relieve the condition. If it has been 3-4 days, using a scrotal support can help alleviate symptoms. Epididymitis tends to recur, so long-term medication is necessary.
For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, it is advisable to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
