Epididymitis Diet Questions

Asked for male, 21 years old from Hyderabad

I have irregularly frequent pain in the scrotum. I can feel a slightly hard and painful mass over the testis around the epididymal area. Left mass is smaller and softer. Sometimes the mass turns really hard and painful. I have seen a ufologist and got a plain ultrasound done. He diagnosed it as an epididymis cyst and gave me the appropriate antibiotics. The pain was relieved, in the sense it is still felt but isn't as severe as before. I wanted to make sure that it's not related to prostate cancer as I sometimes have sharp pains which feel like radiating from the prostate. Or when my rectum is full before defecating, it's just uneasy. I have talked this to the urologist, but he talked it off saying prostate cancer isn't probable at this age which I know is true. But still have doubts about it. And I guess being paranoid about this affecting my fertility is lame, but I want to make sure that this doesn't affect.

Hi lybrate-user
prostate cancer affects males after age 50. Also it affects a small number of males. Scrotal swelling has no relation to prostate.
There are a thousand things you can worry about if you really want to.
Epididymal cysts should be left alone unless infected, till your family is complete.

Hello,
It seems that you are facing your urogenital issues due to reduced immunity. Dietary factors like consuming spicy, sour diet, fast food, beverages ,alcohol etc and factors like late night workout, excessive masturbation etc reduces body vitality and makes a person prone to gribo genital tract infections. It's better to start herbal medications which act on the urogenital system, it can boost your health status and you can fully recover from your current situation.

Asked for male, 21 years old from Kolkata

I am a 20 year old male. I had received a blow in my left testicle 3 weeks ago. My usg reports are normal. I have not masturbated since then. Recently I am having an ache in my affected testicle which swells up slightly and goes away after some time. I am not sure if it is blue balls or the result of the trauma such as epididymal injury. I cannot consult with anyone about this. Please help. I am afraid to masturbate now.

Do not worry, as usg reports are normal, this symptoms may be due to inflammation of internal parts, take anti inflammatory medicines for some days, proper under garments, warm water for drinking, avoid masturbation, sex for some days. Best luck.

Health Query

I have been diagnosed with epididymitis with reactive varicose in my left testis and solid nodules in my right testis (dec 28). Before this condition happened, I used to drink whey protein shake and after two weeks of usage I stopped because my semen started to become brownish then I did not continue to use it because I thought it would go back to its original color as time pass by but until now the color of my semen is light green. I have not ejaculated yet since I was diagnosed with this case. Moreover, the nodule in my right testis is starting to become larger as of the moment. I do not feel any pain, vomiting, fever, nausea, feeling of heaviness in my testicles, pain in my abdomen. I'm not sexually active either. My urinalysis suggested that I have an infection in my urine. The MD prescribed ciprofloxacin. The swelling/hardening of my epididymitis to both sides are not yet subsiding. What antibiotic shall I take to cure my epididymitis? Please help. Thanks.

You have several options-
1. Assessment of the cause of having low count and then treat the cause- but it will take time.
2. To find out whether sperms are produced in the testes (which is more likely in your case) and then we can collect those sperms and do icsi
3. Donor iui.

Sexologist•Kolkata

If you've already tried antibiotics and haven't seen improvement, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider. They may consider further testing or imaging to understand the cause of the persistent symptoms. It's possible that the infection might be resistant to the antibiotics previously used, or there could be other underlying issues.
In addition to antibiotics, other treatments and recommendations may include:
pain management: over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprof...more

My doctor told me am having epididymitis and am on treatment. But I have signs of testicular torsion like nausea and vomiting, size of my left testis has increased and painful and now is the third day still no change. Today as the third day the testis (left one) has increased in size and tenderness and it is hard but it has not changed its color.

Sexologist•Kolkata

The symptoms you described, including nausea, vomiting, increased size and tenderness of the left testis, and hardness, can be associated with testicular torsion. While epididymitis can also cause swelling and pain in the testicles, the persistence and worsening of symptoms, as well as the changes in size and hardness, could indicate a more serious condition.
I strongly recommend contacting your doctor again or seeking immediate medical attention. They will be able to evaluate your symptoms,...more

Epidermoid cysts occur most often on your face, neck and trunk. Epidermoid (ep-ih-dur-moid) cysts are noncancerous small bumps beneath the skin. They can appear anywhere on the skin, but are most common on the face, neck and trunk.
Epidermoid cysts can be left alone, as long as they are not located in an awkward place on the body, and are small. However, a healthcare professional may recommend removal:
if they are infected
if they interfere with everyday life

Hello-
the testicles are extremely sensitive organs. A minor strike to them can produce excruciating pain. More importantly, injuries can jeopardize the health and functionality of the testicles, possibly leading to male infertility. Therefore, testicle pain needs to be examined and treated immediately.
There is no point in wasting time thinking that the problem is going to fix itself. Even if the pains are very infrequent or only associated with masturbation, you should still have them ...more
