Patient's question:
I saw a friend online whose relative also has chronic epididymitis. They have been taking this medicine for a while and are almost cured. It is said that I also have this disease and that I can take this medicine to treat it. I want to know what the functions of this medicine are and what the specific effects are?Doctor's answer:
Chronic epididymitis is usually a result of acute epididymitis, which later forms a lump. First, it's important to identify the pathogen. I recommend you get a test for chlamydia in the secretions, as epididymitis can lead to epididymal adhesions, which may cause blockages. Additionally, a routine semen analysis should be performed. Epididymitis can be resolved, but the treatment duration is generally long, and it's prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications should be used symptomatically. Moreover, during the treatment period, it's advisable to maintain a healthy lifestyle and have a balanced diet.
