Hi!! I have a mild pain and discomfort in my left testicle ...It has been more than 2 weeks now...First the testicle was swallon but now it seems fine.....Ive had a short corse of antibiotic( ciprofloxacin )..4 days....It helped to reduce the swelling .....I am still having pain killers to reduce the pain.... Pain comes after ejaculation .....I ejaculate 2-3 times a week....And my age is 17.. Help is appreciated!!
Hello Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have infection of Epididymis and Testis (Epididymo Orchitis) which has responded well to antibiotics,
Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get your ultrasound scanning of the scrotum done to confirm the diagnosis.
Orchitis takes long time to get cured hence you will need to take antibiotics and anti inflammatory medication for long time (3 weeks).
