Patient's question:
I'm very troubled by my acute epididymitis. Now I don't feel much pain, but I want to ask if acute epididymitis needs to be treated. I hope for your help: Does acute epididymitis need to be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hypothesis of the problem: Acute orchitis often starts from the tail of the epididymis, followed by edema, shedding of the epididymal tubular epithelium, and the reappearance of purulent secretions in the lumen. It then spreads through the interstitium to the body and head of the epididymis, potentially forming small abscesses. Timely symptomatic treatment is required. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a formal hospital as soon as possible. Experts will develop a treatment plan tailored to your condition. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to adequate rest, support the scrotum, and avoid sexual activity.
