Brief Answer:
Be patient

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on health care magic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Indeed your doctor seems to be right that it could be due to a viral infection (epididymoorchitis). Since the ultrasound is normal you need not worry. Give pain medication like paracetamol. Be patient. It would take a week or so for recovery.

Let me know if I could help further.
