  2. Symptoms of chronic epididymitis: Chronic epididymitis is more common, and some patients turn chronic because the acute period fails to completely cure, but most patients do not have a clear acute stage, and inflammation is often caused by chronic or damage.Patients often feel that the scrotum is painful, swelling, and pain often involves the lower abdomen and ingots groin.
