After the occurrence of epididymitis, the epididymis will enlarge to various extents, accompanied by pain, and the weight of the epididymis will significantly increase. In such cases, if the patient stands or sits for extended periods, the pain becomes more noticeable and is not conducive to treating the condition. Frequent prolonged sitting or standing, or even intense physical activity, could potentially lead to the risk of testicular torsion. Therefore, after being diagnosed with epididymitis, doctors usually advise patients to lie flat as much as possible. It is best to elevate the scrotum while lying flat, as this helps with local blood circulation and positively affects the treatment of the condition. If there is a need for special circumstances requiring some activity, it is best to use a scrotal support to lift the scrotum.
