Patient's question:
My brother got epididymitis. He says it doesn't hurt anymore, but sitting for a long time still makes him uncomfortable. The doctor has prescribed medication, and he has been taking it for over a month. Could it be that he's not taking the right medicine? Hello, how should he take care of himself?Doctor's answer:
First, don't get overly anxious—everything's fine! Don't worry! This is just a minor issue. It's mainly related to poor hygiene, urinary tract infections, prolonged sitting without exercise, or drinking too little water.Recommendations:
- Soak in warm water for 10 minutes in the evening.
- Take medications together: Qingre Tonglin capsules, cephalosporin antibiotics, and tablets to stabilize the symptoms.
- Generally, everything will be fine—don’t worry!
Daily care:
- Pay attention to hygiene and change underwear frequently.
- Maintain cleanliness, avoid frequent sexual activity, drink more plain water, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Avoid spicy or irritating foods.
- Avoid prolonged sitting and exercise regularly to stay healthy.
Epididymitis can be resolved.
