Patient's question:
My epididymitis has lumps, and it's very embarrassing when it gets hot in summer. I also don't know what's going on with it?Doctor's answer:
An epididymal mass may be caused by incomplete acute epididymitis treatment leading to chronic epididymitis. The clinical manifestations of chronic epididymitis are not obvious, generally presenting as mild pain and a sense of a lump in the epididymis. If there is slight tenderness, discomfort may be felt. It is recommended to undergo a detailed scrotal ultrasound examination, combined with clinical diagnosis, confirmation, and comprehensive evaluation for treatment to restore health. Epididymitis can be relieved, but the treatment duration is usually long, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to symptoms, and patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene.
