Chronic epididymitis can heal on its own without any painful symptoms, but chronic epididymal nodules may remain or sclerosis of the epididymal body may occur. When touched by hand, the epididymis can be hard in texture or hard nodules of different sizes can be touched in the head, tail and body, etc. There is no pain when touched, and the local area may be slightly adherent or closely adherent to the testis, so it is not easy to distinguish whether it is of testicular or epididymal origin. However, when the immunity of the body decreases, symptoms of recurrence can occur, or there can be no recurrence for life, which is called clinical self-healing, that is, there are no clinical symptoms of self-consciousness, but the patient may have certain physical signs. For patients without fertility requirements, a localized epididymoidectomy can be performed to remove the epididymis along with the nodule to eliminate the possibility of recurrence. However, for patients with fertility requirements, epididymoidectomy cannot be performed and only regular observation is required. If there is no local pain or swelling, then no treatment is needed. It is necessary to pay attention to avoid being sedentary and holding urine during the day, and to take medication in time when the immunity of the body is reduced.
