How to Prevent the Recurrence of Chronic Epididymitis

Patient's question:

When I came home from work, my left testicle was injured and there were small blisters. The ultrasound showed normal results. Later, when I went back for another ultrasound, it showed that the head of the epididymis was enlarged with uneven echoes. I wanted to ask for a second opinion on the blisters, but the doctor checked my blood test and found no signs of inflammation. The doctor didn't want me to take the drip. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description of the condition and the results of the careful examination, it is still likely that the issue stems from a previous injury or subsequent impact. Without symptoms such as pain, swelling, or fever, you can take oral anti-inflammatory medication, apply cold compresses, and then follow up for a reexamination. Please review the second-level neuron section of the original ultrasound report.
It is recommended to maintain a light diet, avoid extremely cold, spicy, or impactful foods, quit smoking and drinking, prevent catching colds or a cold, refrain from sexual activity, pay attention to hygiene in the perineal area, wear loose clothing, get plenty of rest, and keep a positive mood with sufficient deep sleep. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
