Epididymitis is a relatively common disease in the genitourinary system, and epididymitis is not incurable throughout life. 1. General situation: for patients with epididymitis, if you can go to the regular hospital in time for examination, and then in time through the drug or by doing surgery to carry out the treatment, you can achieve very good therapeutic effect. Some patients can be cured. 2. Acute epididymitis patients: can be treated by drugs or through surgery, 4~6 weeks later, the condition can be completely cured, but a small number of patients will turn into chronic epididymitis. Chronic epididymitis treatment time is relatively long, and also has a certain impact on sexual life. 3. Both acute and chronic epididymitis should be rested for at least two weeks, but it is not said that it will be completely recovered after two weeks.
