Help needed! Testicle infection causing low sperm count?

I've been experiencing head of epididymis pain when it is touched, sore discomfort is a good way to describe it. Seems to get worse after ejaculation? I've had ultra sounds done and sti tests and blood work all came back negative/normal.

I've been on several antibiotics just in case there was an infection (epididmyitis) so I'm sure if there was an infection it would be killed by now (5 weeks of different antibiotics)

I've noticed during this time of this discomfort that when I ejaculate the sperm flow is shortened and not as much as it usually is. Does this mean there is an infection? or just some epididymis irritation. My urologist felt my testicles and said that they feel normal/fine and to take anti inflammatories for 5 days morning and night and see if it helps.

What would be causing my sperm to flow different out of my penis???
