How is epididymitis treated in Western medicine?

Patient's question:

Sitting for long periods, standing for long periods, testicular swelling and pain, have been sick for a week, currently taking Norfloxacin

Doctor's answer:

Acute orchitis can be treated with sulfonamides, macrolides, quinolones, and cephalosporins. Generally, medication is required for 1-2 weeks. For chronic orchitis, the use of antibiotics alone is not always effective. Iontophoresis treatment using berberine, neomycin, etc., can be applied to the orchis area. If antibiotics are used to treat chronic orchitis, medication is typically required for 2-4 weeks continuously.
