Epididymitis is a common disease among young and middle aged men. Male patients with this disease have to suffer from many unbearable symptoms, such as a swollen, red or warm scrotum, pain and tenderness in the testicles, painful urination, discharge from the penis, pain during intercourse or ejaculation, a lump on the testicle, etc. Though this infection can be efficiently cure by antibiotics, not every patient can be so lucky to be cured in the end. Some patients are curious about the reason why this disease can be difficult to cure. To answer this question, it’s necessary to know the common epididymitis causes.

What can cause epididymitis?

1.Bacterial infection is the most common cause of acute epididymitis.
When the immunity decreases, the bacteria in the urethra can easily back-track through the urinary and reproductive structures to the epididymis. There can be associated urethritis (inflammation of the urethra). In rare circumstances, the infection reaches the epididymis via the bloodstream.

2.Gonorrhea and Chlamydia can be spread easily by young, sexually active men. These STIs can lead to epididymitis, followed by Neisseria gonorrhoeae and E. coli (or other bacteria that cause urinary tract infection).

Particularly among men over age 35 in whom the cause is E. coli, epididymitis is commonly caused by obstruction of urinary tract. Less common microbes include mycobacterium, ureaplasma, and cytomegalovirus, or cryptococcus in patients with HIV infection. E. coli is more common in boys before puberty, the elderly. In the majority of cases in which bacteria are the causes, only one side of the scrotum or the other is the locus of pain.

3.Non-infectious causes are also possible.

Reflux of sterile urine through the ejaculatory ducts may cause inflammation of epididymis. In children, it may be a response following an infection with enterovirus, adenovirus or mycoplasma pneumoniae.

After you have known the causes of epididymitis, it’s important to take measures to prevent this disease. Since bacteria can be easier to invade the epididymis when the immunity decreases, it’s very important for males to take more exercise to enhance the immunity. Besides, males should also pay attention to the personal hygiene, such as wash the genital areas before and after sexual intercourse. However, if you have infected with epididymitis, you need to take a timely medication like Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill.
