Causes and Treatments of Recurrent Epididymitis

According to relevant research, patients with epididymitis within 35 years old is mostly caused by Chlamydia trachomatis; the epididymitis above 35 years old is mostly caused by Enterobacteriaceae. Pathogens will enter the urinary tract, leading to urethritis, cystitis or prostatitis, which invades the epididymis through the lymphatic system.

 

In addition, the pathogenic bacteria of tonsillitis can also lead to the occurrence of epididymitis, or the pathogenic bacteria of tooth infection can also lead to the occurrence of epididymitis. If the instrument is operated recently, gram-negative Enterobacteriaceae infection is the cause. So, what are the causes of epididymitis recurrence?

 

1. Single treatment

 

After epididymitis, it is likely to induce more infectious diseases, such as seminal male vesiculitis, urethritis, and so on. A single treatment of epididymitis, not other related diseases, may lead to secondary infection and reccurence.

 

2. Low immunity

 

If the patient's immunity is always low, the disease is easy to recur after cure, and epididymitis is no exception. If the patient has liver disease, chronic disease, diabetes, and other diseases in addition to epididymitis, the probability of recurrence of epididymitis will be higher. Therefore, when patients are cured, they should pay attention to improving the body's immunity, so as to effectively prevent the recurrence of epididymitis.

 

3. Drug resistance

 

Some patients don't pay attention to epididymitis when it just happened. They usually buy their own medicine to eliminate the inflammation. However, it is very easy for patients to take improper drugs, resulting in the destruction of the internal environment of the body, and the bacteria in the body also produce drug resistance. In this case, timely follow-up patients to take regular treatment, it is also easy to recur after treatment.

 

4. Potential infection

 

Many patients will stop taking medicine immediately after the symptoms of epididymitis are eliminated, and think that epididymitis has been completely cured. In fact, at this time, some pathogenic bacteria in the body are not completely killed, some bacteria will lurk in the testicle, and some bacteria will lurk in the adjacent part of the testicle, which will lead to the recurrence of patients.

 

5. Complex pathogens

 

Experts pointed out that after the recurrence of epididymitis is mainly caused by the complex pathogens. The pathogenic bacteria of epididymitis are mostly Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus. Therefore, in the treatment of epididymitis, if the medication is improper and single, it will lead to incomplete treatment, so there will be a recurrence.

 

The traditional treatment of epididymitis is antibiotics, analgesics, and surgical drainage. Antibiotics and painkillers can relieve temporary pain, which is more convenient to take, but the efficacy of simple antibiotics in the treatment of epididymitis is not good. The pathological changes after the acute stage of epididymitis, local fibrosis of epididymis, scars often hinder the entry of the efficacy of antibiotics. And taking antibiotics t for a long time will lead to drug resistance and side effects.

 

Patients with epididymitis should not receive treatment blindly, epididymitis often exists at the same time with urethritis and prostatitis, and urethritis and prostatitis are more difficult to treat, which directly increases the treatment difficulty of epididymitis, especially for those who suffered from chronic epididymitis repeatedly. Sometimes patients had to do vasectomy or epididymectomy, which brought great harm to the patients.

 

Therefore, the Chinese herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill, which is more safe and effective with no drug resistance and side effects, can be used to all kinds of bacteria and viruses and eliminate pathogens. At the same time, the blood-activating and stasis-removing effect can help patients to eliminate symptoms, such as swelling, pain, etc., and achieve the purpose of symptomatic treatment.
