What Causes Pain In Testis When Suffering From Epidymitis?

Pls consult doctor and get ultrasound scan if required to confirm diagnosis
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Lcin is an antibiotic and taking 500 mg once daily under recommendation of a doctor usually treats infections like epididymitis. Since you have had it 7 months back, and this time there is persistent pain even after 4 days of medication, it is important that you get yourself clinically examined by your doctor. There might be causes other than epididymitis like orchitis or scrotal wall inflammation and that requires an ultrasound scan of testis to confirm diagnosis.
Acetaminophen 500 mg can be taken for pain relief till you meet the doctor. Please wear loose inner clothes for some days. and avoid wearing tight clothes like jeans.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

If lump is not responding Lcin then ultrasound scan is more important
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
Thanks for writing back with an update.
Your situation is understandable. Since you have written that a lump has formed, it is important to do a scan and see if there is anything serious withing the testis on left side. The tender feeling might be due to acute inflammation and infection with pus formation. Please consult your doctor immediately and do not take any chances.
Doctor consultation and scanning might take just a few minutes and please try to make time for it.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
