How long does it take to treat epididymitis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. I am 31 years old this year. I recently had a thorough check-up and found epididymitis. I plan to be treated in the hospital, so I would like to ask here first how long it takes to treat epididymitis? What should be paid special attention to during the treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, epididymitis generally tends to recur with a sensation of downward dragging accompanied by pain. It is recommended that you focus on taking anti-inflammatory medication for treatment. Typically, symptoms can be relieved within about a week of taking oral anti-inflammatory medication. Additionally, it is advised to avoid consuming excessive spicy and irritating foods in your diet and to eat more vegetables and fruits, as these can help promote symptom relief and achieve a full recovery. Wishing you good health.
