Suggest Treatment For Testicle Pain And Burning Sensation In The Penis Head

Hello I was feeling a burning sensation at the tip of my penis and after about 10 days I started feeling pressure and pain in my testicles. I went to my doctor and he said I probably have prostatitis. He prescribed a 1 month course of sulfatrim. I ve been taking it for a week already and I do not feel better. Still feel pressure and pain in my testicles and pelvic area. Im constantly taking ibuprofen and tylenol but still in pain. Anything else to ease the pain? How long will this take to cure?

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .Based on your symptoms I would state that you are likel to have Prostatitis and needs to be confirmed.

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical and digital rectal examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Swab test and culture of urethral discharge obtained after prostatic massage.

Continue taking medicines prescribed by your family physician and switch on to appropriate antibiotics and anti inflammatory medication like Diclofenac and Serropeptidase twice daily .

Please note that prostatitis takes long time to get cured hence one has to have patience and take medications for 4-6 weeks .

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.

Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
