How to Treat Epididymitis Caused by Staphylococcus

Epididymitis is a common male genital system inflammation, which is caused by Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus. Epididymitis is common in young and middle-aged people, it can be divided into acute epididymitis and chronic epididymitis according to the course of the disease. 

 

Epididymitis is mostly caused by the spread of infections in adjacent organs. The typical symptoms include scrotal pain, tenesmus, and fever, chills and other symptoms of systemic infection. The pain can radiate to the groin, lower abdomen and perineum. Many patients do not know about the disease and how to treat it. So what does the treatment of epididymitis include?

 

1. General treatment

 

Patients should stay in bed and use a scrotal bracket which can help alleviate symptoms in the acute period(3 - 4 days). It is better to make a large scrotal bracket with a cotton pad that is more comfortable and good for alleviating the condition. Analgesics are available for those patients with a severe condition, the local hyperthermia can relieve symptoms and promote the subsidence of inflammation.   

 

However, premature use of hyperthermia can aggravate the condition and increase the risk of infection spread, so you can make a local cold compress by an ice bag. Sexual and physical labor should be avoided as they can aggravate the infection.
 

2. Medication
 

Epididymitis is a kind of reproductive infectious disease, it is usually complicated with other reproductive infections, especially prostatitis and urethritis. Therefore, antibiotics are mainly used in the treatment of epididymitis, which can be divided into intravenous antibiotics and oral antibiotics.

 

At present, antibiotics are mainly used in the treatment of epididymitis. Therefore, before antibiotic administration, bacterial culture must be done to identify the pathogenic bacteria, and a drug resistance test is needed to choose the best antimicrobial drugs which have a better effect.

 

3. Physical therapy
 

Physical therapy of epididymitis is similar to drug treatment of epididymitis. When choosing physical therapy, we also need to consider the synchronous treatment of complications. Generally, simple physical therapy of epididymitis uses a warm sitz bath, scrotum lifting, local hot compress, and other methods, and physical therapy equipment will also be used to cooperate with the treatment.

 

Experts say that there are many ways to treat epididymitis. Physical therapy can indeed cure epididymitis, but we can not take it blindly. It must be treated after the diagnosis of the regular hospital. If you treat the epididymitis blindly, it will cause a more negative impact on you. If the condition is severe, the removal of epididymis should also be considered. 
 

Epididymitis should be treated in time, and it is particularly important to choose the correct and proper treatment. In view of the side effects of antibiotic treatment and the danger of operation, patients can also take Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill, containing a variety of natural herbs such as Angelica Sinensis, safflower, peach seed, etc., it has an effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, sterilizing and anti-inflammatory with no side effects and can eliminate the inflammation of the reproductive and urinary system.

 

The more prompt the treatment is, the easier the treatment will be and the shorter time it will take. When you find you have some abnormal symptoms, you should go to the hospital in time for examination and take active treatment under the doctor's advice, so as to avoid more serious consequences to you. Best wishes for your recovery!
