Patient's question:
Our company has a colleague who has been experiencing discomfort in their groin recently and has been visiting the hospital frequently. The doctor told him that he has epididymitis. He is quite scared because he is still unmarried and has developed this condition. He is worried whether it will affect his fertility in the future and doesn't know if untreated epididymitis will continue to worsen.Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis, if not treated promptly, can continue to worsen and lead to functional disorders, resulting in infertility. Prostatitis is a type of urinary tract infection inflammation, and patients should not ignore its harmful effects. People in good health may experience relief by taking a combination of anti-inflammatory medications. By making changes to many lifestyle habits, such as drinking more water, not holding in urine, avoiding alcohol, spicy foods, maintaining a regular lifestyle, and abstaining from sexual activity and intimacy, a complete recovery can be achieved.
