Hi,Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.
Dear I read your query and reviewed it with context to your query facts.
I understood your health concerns and feel Concerned about them.
Based on the facts of your query, you seem to suffer from-
Recurring Epidymitis due to? accompanied Prostatitis.
This has been the cause of recurring epididymitis in your case.
Its not the backing up of urine,which is causing this recurring epididymitis.
It is the backing up of STD inection,which you had earlier and was treated incompletely,which is the real cause of this prostatitis,which requires special and long term treatment if confirmed by biopsy.
So your Urologist is on right track.
Hope this would resolve your health issues in the best way possible.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Good Day!!
