Patient's question:
Since discovering it, it's been about three or four days. In the early stages, I took many anti-inflammatory medications. This morning, I went to the hospital to get blood and urine tests, which showed no abnormalities. An ultrasound revealed a slight cyst on the right side. The doctor said it's nothing serious and advised me to drink more water. However, by the evening, both sides start swelling, causing standing pain, and lying down makes it much more comfortable. Why does orchitis cause swelling and pain at night but not during the day?Doctor's answer:
This should be due to the inflammation not being completely eliminated. In this situation, you don't need to worry too much, as long as you drink as much hot water as possible and pay attention to getting enough rest, the inflammation will gradually and completely subside after a few days. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in time, it may affect your health condition. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life, while also paying attention to personal hygiene.
