Patient's question:
A man has pain in his testicles, with slight swelling on one side. This issue occurred last week, and after an ultrasound at the hospital, he was prescribed medication. It improved for a few days, but now it has started again. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
This may be epididymitis. First, proper diet and care should be maintained, and the local area should always be kept clean. Digestive vitamins can often improve the condition. Antibiotics should be used to suppress infection, such as levofloxacin or metronidazole. Rest should be paid attention to, and adverse impacts should be avoided. The use of drugs like Longdan Xiegan Wan in combination with treatment can be beneficial for testicular patients. Timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease, but if it is not treated promptly, it may affect the overall health condition. Therefore, patients should seek timely medical treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life, while also paying attention to personal hygiene.
