How long does it take for the testicles to return to normal if they feel hard?

Patient's question:

After the symptoms of epididymitis subside, how long does it take for the testicles to return to their normal texture when touched?

Doctor's answer:

Epididymitis is caused by bacterial infection, leading to local swelling and congestion. After the infection is suppressed, this epididymis and testis may experience temporary changes in texture. This usually gradually and completely recovers within about 2-3 months after the infection is suppressed. Epididymitis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's medication plan is essential during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
