Epididymitis prophase symptom?

summary

Epididymitis is a common disease in young adults. Whenever the body's resistance is low, pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus and Streptococcus will take the opportunity to enter the vas deferens and retrograde invade the epididymis, causing inflammation. Therefore, the disease is secondary to urethritis, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis. Generally, patients with epididymitis will have induration. Induration mostly occurs in the head or tail of epididymis, mostly in the tail. After epididymis infection, nodules are often left in the tail or head.

Epididymitis prophase symptom?

Acute epididymitis is mainly caused by urinary tract, prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis spreading to epididymis along the vas deferens, and bloodstream infection is rare. Epididymitis is easily caused by transurethral instrument operation, frequent catheterization and indwelling catheter after prostatectomy. Acute epididymitis can be converted to chronic epididymitis if it is not treated thoroughly.

Sudden high fever, leukocytosis, scrotal distension, depression, lower abdomen and groin pain, aggravated when standing or walking. The epididymis on the affected side was swollen with obvious tenderness. When the scope of inflammation is large, the epididymis and testis are swollen, and the boundary between them is unclear, which is called epididymal orchitis. The spermatic cord on the affected side was thickened and tender. In general, the acute symptoms can gradually subside after one week.

Chronic epididymitis is more common, some patients become chronic because of the acute stage can not be completely cured, but most patients do not have a clear acute stage, inflammation is often secondary to chronic prostatitis or injury. The patient often feels scrotal dull pain, swelling and falling sensation, the pain often involves the lower abdomen and ipsilateral groin, and sometimes can be combined with secondary hydrocele. The epididymis is often enlarged and hardened in varying degrees. Mild tenderness and thickening of ipsilateral vas deferens.

matters needing attention

In the early stage, the lesions were confined to the tail of epididymis, and finally involved the whole epididymis. The general onset is relatively slow, painless, vas deferens with Beaded changes. Urine culture was positive for tuberculosis.
