Brief Answer:
Pain can persist for few weeks.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Slight pain and discomfort can persist for four to six weeks even after antibiotic course, the symptoms persist long in chronic epidymitis caused by tuberculosis.
Generally the symptoms will be mild and can be ignored. You can use over the counter available analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief.
If there is repeated attacks of severe pain, conditions like prostitis or tuberculosis must be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query.
Thanks

Brief Answer:
You can ejaculate as usual.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You can ejaculate as normal. It does not have any impact on recovery or healing. Some physicians says it will help to open up small blocks and helps in recovery. However proper evidence is not available.
However it is to avoid during acute phase.

So is it good to ejaculate during this,
As I came through it helps in releasing bacteria in the testes
And does it increase the healing time

What can be done to avoid it in the future and during the recovery course it is better to wear innerwear or not?
Brief Answer:
It will be better to wear inner wear.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is better to wear inner wear because support to scrotum will provide symptomatic relief.
You have to avoid strenuous physical activities and weight lifting.
Long periods of sitting is also not recommended.
