Hello, can you get epididymitis at 15 without having sex? I've had symptoms similar to epididymitis for about two weeks. Unfortunately, I didn't get it checked out because I'm so afraid of going to the urologist. It doesn't hurt anymore. But I have a slight feeling that my epididymis is a bit hardened. Does anyone…
In February, I got epididymitis with unpleasant, not severe pain and a pulling sensation. My left epididymis was swollen. It's now September, seven months have passed, and the swelling hasn't changed at all; it hasn't shrunk at all. I don't have any pain, but everything there is very sensitive, and I occasionally experience an unpleasant…
Hello! A while ago, my glans was a little red and itchy. That's gone now, but since then, my left epididymis has been slightly painful when pressed. Some days it's more intense and others less intense, but overall it's less intense. Yesterday I went to the urologist, but I think I didn't express myself correctly…
I know none of you are medical professionals. Just to be clear. But maybe someone can help me… People always say you can feel your epididymis and that it's clearly separated from the testicle. Some people (including me) feel a lump. I've already gone to the urologist several times out of uncertainty. Each time, he…
Hello everyone, I have an epididymitis and was in the emergency room. A urologist examined me with a blood test, palpation, and ultrasound. I was given antibiotics etc. Now I have looked at the doctor's letter again and under diagnosis it says: Suspected left epididymitis C63.04 Malignant neoplasm: Epididymis (L)(HD) After googling it shows me…
Hi, I've had epididymitis for several weeks. After the first antibiotic didn't seem to work and the pain got worse, I went to the emergency urologist. He then took a closer look and prescribed me levofloxacin, as it seems to work better in this area. I'm supposed to take it once a day and am…
I was recently diagnosed with epididymitis and am now taking specific antibiotics for treatment. The symptoms are quite unpleasant, and I have pain and swelling in my genital area. My doctor has given me some recommendations, such as bed rest and icing the genital area, but I'm unsure whether I should go to work during…
Hello everyone, I've had epididymitis for a year now, sometimes more severe, sometimes less severe. I've already taken doxycycline and ciprofloxacin (I had to stop taking cipro after 7 days). Now my family doctor gave me azithromycin. What other antibiotic would be an alternative? My doctors (including urologists) are at a loss. The infection came…
What antibiotic did you receive for epididymitis, and how did you tolerate it? Are you now problem-free, or do you still have pain down there? I've already been given azithromycin twice, but the problems persist. Doctors are at a loss. I would be very happy to receive answers! 🙂 Lg
Hi everyone My family doctor prescribed me the antibiotic Azithromycin 500mg today for my diagnosed epididymitis Now all I can find online is that it's used as a single dose for chlamydia 🤔 but I haven't had a girlfriend in four years. So I'm ruling out chlamydia. It must be other bacteria that's causing this…
What does it mean if someone has severe pain in their testicles out of the blue? Over the last few months he has had sudden testicular pain on one side, on average every 1-3 weeks, which radiates up into his stomach and also into his thigh. In the acute situation, the pain seems so severe…
Hello everyone. For a few days, or about a week, I've been having testicular pain that gets worse and worse. The pain in each testicle alternates between the two. Externally, the only thing I can notice is that my left testicle hangs lower. I can feel a pulling sensation, but not the direction. I also…
