Patient's question:
Why is it orchitis on the right side, and I have epididymitis? I haven't ejaculated for a week, and suddenly when I had a quickie, there were some blood clots. What's going on? Is it because of the epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
A 24-year-old male was previously diagnosed with orchitis and epididymitis, and blood in semen reappeared after sexual intercourse. Generally, the recurrence of blood in semen is related to chronic prostatitis, chronic seminal vesiculitis, orchitis, and epididymitis. After the recurrence of inflammation, systematic and standardized anti-inflammatory treatment is required, and sexual intercourse should not be engaged in casually. For patients with testicular swelling, timely treatment can reduce the incidence, whereas delayed treatment may affect their physical condition. Therefore, patients should seek timely and symptomatic treatment.
