What are the precautions for epididymitis?

Epididymitis is caused by bacterial infection. It is usually more common in adults, but it also has a certain incidence rate in children and adolescents. The main measures to prevent epididymitis are to pay attention to the hygiene of the private parts, take a bath frequently, and change underwear frequently. Especially for children, they should also wash their external genitalia regularly and avoid wearing tight pants. When the epididymis is injured, go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Let's take a look at the precautions after suffering from epididymitis.

Precautions for epididymitis

1. Develop good living habits, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, increase the intake of vitamin C and other ingredients to improve the body's anti-inflammatory ability. Eat less so-called "irritating foods" such as pig's trotters, fish soup, and mutton, so as to avoid increasing secretions in the inflamed area, further infiltrating and aggravating symptoms of epididymitis. Be careful not to eat spicy and irritating foods, do not smoke or drink, do not stand or sit for long periods of time, and do not have excessive sex.

2. Prevent reproductive infectious diseases. Epididymitis usually occurs secondary to epididymitis, and epididymitis is often secondary to reproductive infectious diseases such as prostatitis, urethritis, and seminal vesiculitis. Therefore, one of the important means to prevent epididymitis is to prevent various reproductive infectious diseases.

3. Pay attention to daily maintenance. Men should pay attention to the maintenance of the epididymis. Men can massage the epididymis with both hands when taking a bath or before going to bed. Use your thumb to gently pinch the epididymis clockwise and counterclockwise for ten minutes each. Long-term persistence will definitely be beneficial. If you find abnormal pain during massage, it may be epididymitis or epididymitis. Please go to the hospital for examination in time.
