How to Distinguish Testicular Torsion from Epididymitis?

The testis is connected to the scrotum through the testicular mesangium, and it is fixed to the scrotum by the testicular mesangium. Some fetuses will produce one or both testicular mesangium too long during development. After birth, the activity of testis and spermatic cord will be very large. If they suddenly encounter force or violent concussion, the testis and spermatic cord will undergo a certain degree of torsion, also known as spermatic cord torsion.

Testicular torsion is harmful to human body. First of all, testicular torsion will affect the blood supply of testis. If not treated actively, testicular ischemic necrosis will occur. At this time, the whole testis will be lost. In addition, if the lateral testis is also affected, the reproductive and sexual functions of patients will be greatly affected. Therefore, once testicular torsion occurs, timely medical treatment should be conducted to restore the torsion and protect testicular function.
 
Epididymitis is a common disease in non-specific infection of male reproductive system, mostly in young and middle-aged people. When various reasons lead to the reduction of their own resistance, pathogens can take the opportunity to invade the epididymis and cause inflammation. It is characterized by sudden pain in scrotum, swelling of epididymis, obvious tenderness, fever and epididymis sclerosis. Inflammation of epididymis can affect sperm maturation and reduce fertility. Inflammation can also cause blockage of epididymis tube and affect sperm output, which can cause clinical infertility.
 
For the patients with typical symptoms, they can go to in the Department of Andrology or urology, through scrotal ultrasonography, prostatic fluid examination, urethral secretion culture and so on, to see whether there are pathological changes in testis and epididymis, whether there are pathogens, whether there are complications. If bacteria or Chlamydia mycoplasma are positive, it is suggested that sensitive antibiotics should be given priority in drug sensitivity test.

If the patients with testicular cyst or testicular nodule are examined, the scope is small and asymptomatic; if the scope is large and the pain of compression is obvious, they can be resected surgically, and Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can be used to consolidate the treatment after operation; if there is epididymal tuberculosis, anti-tuberculosis treatment can be given first. If the effect of routine medication is not good, Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can be chosen. It can cure orchitis and epididymitis.

On the one hand, it can remove pathogens causing pathological changes of testis and epididymis, can effectively sterilize and eliminate inflammation; on the other hand, Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill formula can effectively eliminate swelling, pain and discomfort of testis and epididymis, and eliminate the effect of promoting blood circulation and promoting qi, diuresis and stranguria.

It can also effectively eliminate the swelling and pain discomfort of testis and epididymis, eliminate the burning and stinging pain of urethra, alleviate the symptoms of urethral mucosal discomfort caused by gonorrhea, treat testis and epididymitis from various aspects of the origin of the lesion, and also cure its complications such as small epididymal cysts and small epididymal nodules.
