Suggest Treatment For Groin Pain When Diagnosed With Epididymitis
I have epididimitus and I’m still feeling pain on the left side of my groin, I’m also feeling pain while urinating, and now I’m dealing with erectile dysfunction. I’m on my way to Florida for spring break. Is there anything I can do to feel better just til I get back from vacation?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Epididymitis is a harmless condition and it will respond well to antibiotics. You can start antibiotics for five to seven days preferably amoxicillin/clavulanate combination. Analgesics like ibuprofen or paracetamol can be taken for pain. No need to worry as of now as the symptoms will be relieved by three to four days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
