Anyone ever have epididymitis?

Epididymitis is an inflammation of the small, coiled tube at the back of the testicle (epididymis).

I've had it before and I'm pretty sure I have it again. Right nut is swollen, hurts, and I have a lot of the same symptoms that I had when I had it a few years back.

I've been taking antibiotics that are, I think, the same as what they prescribed me when I went. I just don't want to wait in the ER all ****ing day/night for them to ultrasound my right nut and give me the same **** again. The swelling has slowly gone down from what it was a few nights ago, but I just got out of the shower and the pain shot up like a horse just kicked me in the nut.

I'll probably end up going tomorrow if the pain doesn't get better. I was just wondering if anyone that's had it in the past could remember what the antibiotic was. That'd save me the trip if I'm taking the correct one.

That would mean that I'd have to stay awake for many more hours. I'm not like that dumb**** from the other night that refuses to go see a doctor, I'll go, but only if absolutely necessary and I don't think I'm quite there yet.

it's not a bacterial infection, epididymitis is an inflammation aka NSAID's will help, antibiotics won't do anything. GP-s might give antibiotics because epididymitis is associated with STI-s which are bacterial.

relax, put some ice on it and even the pain out by smacking yourself in the other plum with a resistance band

They sure as hell gave me ABs lol

I know that -itis basically means inflammation. I just thought it was inflamed because of an infection. Good to know. Will rep tomorrow. Appreciate it, bro.

i dont think i had that but i just found out i have an epididymal cyst.

you wont wait that long if you tell them you have teste pain. they want to make sure you dont have testicular torsion first and foremost so just tell them you're having extreme testicular pain and you should be seen relatively quickly. mornings are always better for the ED. idk about weekends though.

LSS This has the potential to be a srs condition, and a proper, diagnosis by a medical professional ASAP would be your best option. Testicular necrosis would not be good.
let me tell you, there is no bloke who can't tell when theres torsion ayyy. the pain level is apparently on par with birth

Had it 2 months ago, started as dull pain in lower ab and balls, my sis-in law is an uerologist she told ne to go to er stat when the pain started getting worse over a few hours. Gave me pain meds while in there then after all tests let me go with a script for anti-biotic and care instructions..My right testicle ended up being about the size of a softball, crazy pain. I thought the were kidding about wearing tighty whitey, well after 2 days i bought some to try anything to help the pain and they re the truth. best nut support ever and i wear compression boxers, the way the whiteys cup the boys is heaven because gravity is a mofo and pulling on the infected tube in the balls....awful time, took almost a week to feel full strength and 2 motnsh later right testicle is close to normal size but is much ahrder than before

First thread I ever made on the misc was a srs thread about how I get extreme testicular pain whenever I haven't nutted in 36-48 hours. Ever since I can remember.. Haven't gone to the doc to get myself diagnosed yet, still happens to this day. I have to get off every 36 hours or I'm in for some serious pain.

Keep in mind that you can lose a nut in just a couple of hours if it's something like testicular torsion. Go to the ER. It doesn't sound like that, but why chance it?

I had epyditimitis for years I kept taking short term courses of antibiotics. This NEVER fixed me, although it helped initially. it kept coming back.

You need long term high dose antibiotics, I’m on doxycycline 100 mg twice a day. Will continue for even a year or more if I have to, but it’s 4 months very minimum.

Professor Malone lee talks about embedded infections, you can book an online consultation with him. But it’s the same deal with having a urinary tract infection, unless you kill the entire infection including the protective biofilm it will keep coming back. Even if your test results don’t show you have epyditimitis or an infection it’s still there if you have symptoms.

I had it once, when it hurt ot hurt like hell. Like someone grabbing your nut and squeezing it. I went to a doctor and he gave me antibiotics, it got better pretty fast after that.

I think so, from wearing too small of pants. Some infections can show similar symptoms, so I'd go for tests.
