Can coughing irritate/inflame an epididymal cyst? I was diagnosed by an urologist about a year ago with a cyst. The irritation comes back and goes away. He recommended not to operate because it is not large enough. But for the last 4 days, I developed a cough and it is bothering me. The cough is from a sinus infection and bronchial irritation. These symptoms include cough, runny nose, feeling like crap at the onset (first 2 days) and night chills/sweating. Or is the epididymitis flare up caused by something else (i.e. Gardening - using a shovel last week that could have caused the inflammation to come back) or simply non-related.
Hi, Rhinitis, pharyngitis and epididymitis all are the infections of related organs. All may be due to the same microorganism..viral or bacteria. So, consult the general surgeon and physician and get the proper medical treatment to get relief of all the infections. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
