Hi
For the past couple of weeks i had a slight pain in my right testical. Yesterday the pain in the testical was very bad. It was like a strong ache feeling and my my scotum felt very heavy. To go with those symptoms, i had a pain on my lower spine (left hand side). I mentioned the problems to my girlfriend and she made a appointment for me at the local clinic in the hospital. I explained the problems i was having and also the back pain. The doctor checked the painful area in my back 1st and said the muscle seems very stiff and thinks i have just pulled a muscle there.She asked what i do for a living which i replied heavy labour work, plenty of lighting a day and due to the crap workplace conditions i find it hard to light properly. She then checked my right testical and said it may be an epididymitis infection. I asked how can i get an infection like that and she mentioned that my body may not be strong enough to fight the infection off. Asked weather i was eating properly ie.. veg, fruit. omething that im not. I always skip breakfast and due to my busy work place, i never get time to eat properly. I also mention that i have been under a lot of stress as of late. Anyway, the doctor has given me a course of ciprofloxacin and aslo Doxycycline. She aslo told me to take a 400 and 200 mg ibuprofen tablet 3 times a day..
Now, when i was 19 i found a lump in my scrotum. I went to the doctors and was told it was a cyst. I just have this really strange gut feeling that it could be something else. Has anyone been though simular circumstances?. I would really be greatfull for some more advise. I did look on the internet for epididymitis infection, Heavy lifting was a known cause and also STDs (several months after infection). This i know is not the cause due to being in a strong and faithful relationship for 5 years..
Im just really worried and need more information
many thanks
