What should I do if I had epididymitis last year and it has recurred now?

Patient's question:

By chance, I accidentally touched a small lump under the testicles with my hand. It felt soft inside, like there might be pus or blood. Is this a big problem? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

The situation you described is the recurrence of a reproductive infection. It is recommended that you first get checked, and then treat the symptoms based on the test results. Avoid spicy foods, drink more water, wear loose and breathable underwear and pants, and do not hold in urine. Epididymitis can be cured, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible.
