How To Cure The Condition Of Epidymitis?
I had pain that the doctor called epidymitis. I was prescribed Cipro and the pain moved from behind my testicles up my right side where my leg and pelvis connects. I have no other issues than the continual pain in that area. I don't have frequent urination.

Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can understand your anxiety.
Epididymitis pain gives rise to same symptoms, that you describe.
Complete the course of Ciprofloxacin,with anti-inflammatory analgesics.
Keep your scrotum elevated during daytime,with a scrotal support.
If pain persists after one week of treatment, then you need to do a scan.
It's called a scrotal, doppler ultrasound scan,which gives an idea of cause.
If you've any doubts,send the reports to me,as a direct question.
