How To Treat Epidimytis With Hard And Swollen Testicle While On Antibiotics?

My left testicle was swollen and tender. I went in the doc diagnosed it as epidimytis (or however you spell it) it s day 3 of taking the anti biotics. I just recently masterbated and ejaculated. The teaticle that was swollen and tender to touch is now hard and still swollen. I m worried about it being hard...where as it was swollen and felt soft/mushy by the epidimytis before. Is it normal? What should I do?

You have infection of Epididymis and Testis (Epididymo- Orchitis).

Continue taking antibiotics along with anti inflammatory medications like Diclofenac and Serropeptidase twice daily .

Please note that Epididymitis takes long time to get cured hence you may need to take these drugs for 3-4 weeks .
