Thank you to the doctor for answering my question quickly – how to treat and prevent
Doctor's answer:
Mostly seen in middle-aged and young adults. When various reasons lead to a decrease in the body's resistance, pathogens can take advantage of the opportunity to invade the epididymis and cause inflammation. It is characterized by sudden pain in the scrotal area, swelling of the epididymis, significant tenderness upon touch, and may be accompanied by fever, epididymal hardening, etc. Inflammation of the epididymis can affect sperm maturation, reducing its fertilization ability; inflammation can also cause blockage of the epididymal ducts, affecting sperm output, all of which can lead to clinical infertility.
