Dr. Li Mingchuan
Epididymitis can be treated with anti-inflammatory medications as prescribed by a physician, such as erythromycin or amoxicillin. Intravenous antibiotic therapy—e.g., azithromycin injection—may also be used. Additionally, patients should ensure adequate rest, avoid strenuous physical activity, follow a light diet, and refrain from consuming spicy, irritating, or greasy foods.
