Patient's question:
Three years ago, I had acute epididymitis, which wasn't treated promptly and turned into chronic. Yesterday afternoon, it flared up with a heavy and distended lower abdomen, accompanied by pain, lower back pain, and redness and swelling in the left testicle.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Your current condition is indicative of chronic epididymitis.Guidance: Currently, the inflammation may be significant, so it is advisable to start with appropriate intravenous fluid treatment for three to five days for better anti-inflammatory effects. Additionally, it is recommended to take oral traditional Chinese medicine decoctions for gradual regulation. Specific treatment should be determined based on a comprehensive diagnosis considering tongue coating, pulse, and other symptoms. Medicinal formulas such as Tiantai Wuyao Powder, Xiaoyao Powder, and Juhé Pills are all suitable options.
