What is the cause of male epididymitis? Testitis is a common disease of men. It brings great pain to men. Men must pay attention to the treatment of orchitis. What is the reason why men suffer from orchitis?
Epididymitis is a common disease in young adults. When 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 retrogradely invade the epididymis to cause inflammation. Acute epididymitis is caused by the spread of urogenital prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis along the vas deferens to the epididymis, resulting in blood vessel infection. It is rare that the operation of transurethral instruments is frequent, and the indwelling catheter after prostatectomy is easy to cause epididymitis, Acute epididymitis can be converted to chronic epididymitis if the treatment is not complete.
Experts pointed out that the main reason for external infection is that the design of traditional men's underwear on the market is unreasonable. Most men's underwear is basically double-layered before design, covering the penis and scrotum. The penis and scrotum are in a high-temperature and humid environment for a long time, becoming a hotbed for the propagation of pathogenic bacteria and other microbiological organisms, which is easy to cause prostatitis
This is the case with most chronic prostatitis. There is no consensus on the cause of this disease. Other microorganisms, such as chlamydia trachomatis, mycoplasma, trichomonas, fungi, anaerobes, etc. The incidence may be related to irregular sexual life, erection without ejaculation, interruption of sexual intercourse or long-distance cycling, long-term seat work, pelvic prostate congestion, etc. Excessive drinking and spicy food often aggravate the symptoms of prostatitis
In addition, a large number of survey data show that acute epididymitis may also be caused by external pressure, with the feeling that the testicles are crushed. The more reason is that sexual life is frequent, especially for teenagers and unmarried people. Masturbation may also cause this disease!
Simple testicular function is easy to cure, but testicular infection is usually accompanied by other inflammation, it is difficult to say whether it can be completely cured. It is observed that the proportion of abnormal testicular function caused by unclean sexual behavior is increasing. Most infertile male patients with testicular infection show that they have had the experience of having sex and finding mistakes overnight. However, too long foreskin and long-term non-cleaning can also cause epididymis infection. So men suffering from epididymitis must be treated in time.
How to distinguish orchitis from epididymitis
Both orchitis and epididymitis are common diseases in andrology. Adult orchitis is mostly caused by epididymitis directly spreading to the testis or infection through blood. The following are the specific differences between the two diseases:
