Hi. Thanks for your query. Read and understood your concern. History of Mesh repair for umbilical hernia in past- gained 60 lbs- there is now soreness on the right lower abdomen - Family Doctor though of and gave Cipro for Epididymitis - more soreness in the abdomen than the testicle. I would advise in such a situation the following: Since this is an important question about the cause of pain you have, it is better to take an opinion of the Specialist like a General Surgeon or an Urologist for clinical evaluation, actual physical examination and order the proper investigations like that of urine, blood and stool; an ultrasonography of the abdomen and the scrotum and color doppler examination. Get an appropriate antibiotic like cefixime and Metronidazole. This will give us an idea of the probable diagnosis. Further treatment can be continued on the basis of clinical evaluation and the reports of the investigations.
