First, the epididymis is the place where sperm is stored, and it can also secrete epididymal fluid, which contains some hormones, enzymes and specific nutrients, which help sperm mature. If inflammation occurs, it is easy to lead to male infertility. Common is acute epididymitis, chronic epididymitis, tuberculous epididymitis.

Second: acute epididymitis can occur on one side or both sides, with one side more common. Acute epididymitis usually starts from the tail of epididymis, with epididymal epithelial edema, desquamation and purulent secretions in the lumen, and then infiltrates into the body and head of epididymis through the stroma, and forms micro abscess.

Third: chronic epididymitis patients with mild symptoms, can have scrotal swelling, pain can be released to the lower abdomen and the same side of the thigh inside; affected side of the epididymis mild swelling, hardening, induration, local tenderness is not obvious; ipsilateral vas deferens can be thickened, occasional history of acute attack. If it is bilateral chronic epididymitis, oligospermia can cause infertility.
