What are the symptoms of epididymitis?

Patient's question:

My semen is yellow, a bit like the color of feces. I'm worried it might be a disease. What are the symptoms of epididymitis?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with orchitis and epididymitis will experience testicular and epididymal pain. The pain in the scrotum often occurs suddenly again and can radiate along the spermatic cord to the groin area and lumbar-sacral region. The pain is usually severe, with significant tenderness and resistance to palpation. Swelling progresses rapidly, and the volume of the epididymis can decrease by half within 3-4 hours. The body temperature can reach approximately 40°C, and there may be a recurrence of urethral discharge. At this time, it may be accompanied by cystitis, with cloudy urine.
