Patient's question:

Attached epididymis is a little painful. I used to have acute epididymitis, and chronic epididymitis as well. It took a few months for the chronic one to heal, but it has been several years since then. What kind of medicine can be effective quickly? Is it because I have been working night shifts recently and sitting for long periods of time? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Onset of illness related to chlamydia infection, other urinary tract infections, and non-healing after acute infectious diseases.
Recommendations: Elevate the scrotum, apply local cold compresses, take warm baths, and undergo physical therapy. Use antibiotics such as cephalexin as appropriate for treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting, maintain a light diet, and balance rest and activity.
The epididymis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is prone after recovery. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
