How to remove epididymal nodules

Epididymal nodules are also a relatively common phenomenon. The main cause of epididymal nodules is repeated inflammation, which eventually leads to the formation of nodules. This disease is common in young and middle-aged men and is prone to unilateral disease. Generally, if it is not thoroughly treated, it may become chronic and hard lumps will appear after recovery. For this type of disease, some physical methods can be used for treatment, or Chinese medicine can be used for treatment.

How to remove epididymal nodules

Epididymitis is a common disease of nonspecific infection of the male reproductive system. When the body's immunity is low, pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus retrogradely invade the epididymis and cause inflammation. This disease is more common in young and middle-aged people, often unilaterally. If acute epididymitis is not cured completely, it can easily become chronic. After chronic epididymitis is cured, most patients will develop lumps, which are epididymal nodules. If the epididymal nodule is relatively small and there is no discomfort, you can go to the hospital for a check-up to make sure it is not a disease such as epididymal tuberculosis. If there is no special situation, you can ignore it. If there is discomfort in the local area of ​​the lump, it needs treatment. Generally, drug treatment alone is not effective for epididymal nodules, and it can be treated in combination with physical therapy. The methods of physical therapy include lifting the scrotum, local hot compresses, hot water sitz baths or physical therapy. If local attacks recur repeatedly or the pain is severe, even affecting study and work, epididymisectomy should be considered. The absorption rate of the epididymal nodule depends on many factors, such as its size and whether the treatment is timely.
