A member asked:

Can eppidimitis happen by not ejaculating regularly ? i have only been releasing semen by nocturnal emissions for the last 6 months.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: There is no proof for that to occur . Epididymitis is an infection involving that structure attached to the testis. Have been treated for it ? Usually it is treated with elevation of scrotum,antibiotics,pain medication,preferably Ibuprofen 600mg twice a day to help with swelling.Best of health !!!!
