Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 25 years old this year, male gender. I know that traditional Chinese medicine has a long history and cultural heritage. Then I went for a health check-up and was told I have epididymitis. I want to ask if epididymitis can be cured with traditional Chinese medicine?Doctor's answer:
Epididymitis can be treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine, but the effect is relatively slow. Generally, it is recommended to take Western medicine, such as levofloxacin capsules. During treatment, it is important to drink more water, urinate frequently, and ensure bowel movements are smooth. The diet should be based on light foods, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, as well as tobacco and alcohol. Daily cleaning and drying of the testicular area should be performed, and underwear should be changed frequently. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
