Started with epidydimitis in my left testicle back on April 22nd. Took cipro for 30 days. Abscess went away but pain was now in my prostate. My GP said prostate felt "boggy." Urologist put me on Flomax for 10 days. Symptoms are only slightly better. So basically I've had this for almost 7 months. Had the same thing in the mid-90's and it lasted 2-1/2 years but went away by itself after trying lost of different AB's when I first had it.
Pain is mainly in my testicles (particularly the right side) but I feel a tightness in my groin behind the scrotum. Urination is totally normal. My only symptoms are discomfort and pain.
