Hi guys, back in April, i found that i have pain/discomfort on my right testi. Went to see doc and he said i got NGU and given my doxy for 2 weeks. After that went back to him, he said it's clear. But after another 1 week, the pain is back.Went back and he gave me another two kinds of antibiotics for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, the pain is still there even on medication. He told me to find a urlogist and mean while given me 2 weeks of doxy. Went to urlogist, he ask me to do ultra scan on my testi, he told me i got prostatitis. Given me 4 weeks of cipro. After this 4 weeks, i still have the pain and symptoms.Can anyone tell me more about this prostatitis? I will have discharge while pasing motion(not very often though) but the discomfort on the right testi is on and off.
Can anyone give me some advice? And besides that, i have a few questions,
1) Is Prostatitis curable? I read from net that it's difficult to cure. Is it true?
2) Is this counted as STD?
3) How is prostatitis transmitted? By sex? or what?
Thanks in advance . Seriously, i'm very worried at the moment..... http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/frown.gif

Hello it might sound like you have epididymitis. I had a chronic pain in and around my right testicle for 2 months before several docs found out what it was. He put me on cipro. I have been on it for almost 2 months and its finnaly getting better. Also check for the listing i have under testicular pain. It goes into more detail. good luck
