Suggest Treatment For Severe Testicular Pain

About 6-8 weeks ago I noticed that when I ejaculated I felt a pain through my right testicle. This happened quite a few times after. When I rested it for a few days it didn t seem so bad but I would get a slight pain occasionally in the area of the scrotum close to my groin and top of the right teste. This has been like this since but more recently I have felt like a pulled muscle or something in my lower abdomen. Especially recently after pulling a suitcase or long walk. I had an ultra two weeks ago and a prostate check and everything was fine. However still have this sore feeling like a pulled muscle in lower abdomen and tingly pain in testicles off and on.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
All these symptoms are suggestive of epididimitis which is inflammation of part of testicle and it can be easily treated if I am right. Other causes include STD and inguinal hernia but this is less common.Epididimitis is usually treated with 10 days of antibiotics, usually ciprofloxacin and there are no permanent consequances. MAsturbation and intercourse should be avoided till pain persist, if possible since I may prolong inflammation course. Some more serious conditions such as tumors or torsion are rare but in doubtful cases you should do Doppler ultrasound or scintigraphy. In this particular case, I don’t think this is required.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
