Question 1

can epididymitis be caused by holding ejaculation in at time of orgasm? please do answer.

Accepted Answer

Here are some ...: Holding ejaculation can be reached to a degree but at the end emission / ejaculation is a inevitable uninhibited process; semen itself would not cause epididymitis, but infected urine / STD-urethritis will make its way to epididymis to cause epididymitis. So, make sure of treating infection if any and don't worry about holding ejaculation.

Question 2

sometimes have mild pain in right testicle after ejaculation. i have no other symptoms and am not sexually active so could it still be epididymitis?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Development of epididymitis  varies in causes. In children it is most commonly associated with urinary tract infections. In young, sexually active men, it is often linked to STDs. And in older men it is often caused by enlargement of the prostate gland. It can also occur with trauma and sometimes there is no obvious explanation.

Question 3

my testicle started getting swollen, red and painful once i blocked my ejaculation while masturbating once. doctor told me i had epididymitis. how is that possible?

Accepted Answer

: Epididimytis

This is an infection unrelated to your  masturbation and needs to be treated  by your doctor. Good Luck

Question 4

what can cause dull one-sided scrotal pain after ejaculation? this happened before but an ultrasound ruled out torsion and epididymitis problems. had opposite side inguinal hernia surgery a couple years ago and a hydrocelectomy 15 yrs.ago?

Accepted Answer

: You should see your urologist again. That symptom could be a manifestation of chronic pelvic pain syndrome and chronic prostatitis can be the cause.

Question 5

does urine reflux into ejaculatory ducts or epididymitis every time you urinate? if yes then how dangerous is this and how it can be treated?

Accepted Answer

Probably not..., but: Remember we need to live with whatever come with our life. For a men of 25, i would more incline to think of non-specific urethritis-related epididymitis first. But for general and specific concern on all your questions, it would be most advisable to see, talk, and work with your expert professionals. 

Best wish...

Question 6

i have a pain under the abdomen and pain in the testicles only when i press the epididymis is there a case of having epididymitis? and in case i have ejaculatory duct obstruction? it's possible to have epididymitis?

Accepted Answer

: Pl do not press your epidid as they are pretty sensitive. If there is no palpable swelling you do not have epididymitis. Ejac duct obstruction is very rare. I suggest leave the epidids alone and wear a good support underwear and you will be fine.

Question 7

can with holding ejaculations cause epididmytis-orchitis?

Accepted Answer

No: Charles, Epididymitis and Orchitis have two primary causes: urinary bacteria and sexually transmitted bacteria. If you think you might have either epididymitis or orchitis, see your doctor to get checked out. Hope this helps!

Question 8

what are the reasons for  epydidymitis swelling? does ejaculation worsen it?

Accepted Answer

Epydidymitis: This is an infection. It may be caused by irritation or minor trauma to the scrotum. It rarely is an extension of a problem in the prostate.

Ejaculation will not make it worse.

Question 9

ive had epididymitis for a long time, and have been treated for it in the past. its in the left testicular. could it also affect the right one?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: Acute epididymitis is most commonly infectious in etiology but can also be from noninfectious causes such as trauma and autoimmune diseases. Based on this, it may affect other testes. A urologist should be seen to assess for repeat infections of epididymitis.

Question 10

is the epididymitis curable ?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes, epididymitis is curable with the correct antibiotic. Typically, this requires an antibiotic such as Ciprofloxacin to penetrate into the epididymis. You'll need to see a doctor for a urine culture as well as an exam to determine this.
