Pain all around penis and scrotum

About 2 weeks ago I started to experience some discomfort that felt like it was coming from behind my scrotum. I also started to get full aches and pains all around my pelvic area. I immediately went to the dr and the dr said he thought I had an enlarged prostate and was giving terozosin and doxycycline. After taking the meds for 4 days, I was not feeling better so when I called the dr back, the dr scheduled me for for a CT scan. Results came back normal, and told me my prostate was not even enlarged and there should be no pain. I stopped taking the meds right away, and I started experiencing new symptoms. My tip of the penis started feeling very tender and feels like a burning pain/ache, and also get random aches all around my scrotum, and burning aches around my waist line. I went to a urgent care dr, which gave me a urine analysis, and everything came back fine. No blood in urine, no UTI, no infection, and prescribed me ciprofloxacin 500 mg, twice a day, for 10 days. I'm on my 5 th day and although I feel like the discomfort behind my scrotum has gotten better, I still have a burning sensation on and around my penis and scrotum. My question is, am I crazy? What else could I do to feel better?

No you're not crazy. You most likely have pelvic congestion caused by May-Thurner Syndrome. I have this condition and can tell you almost no doctor will even think to diagnose it. Ask for an ultrasound specifically looking for MTS or an Interventional Radiologist can perform a venogram to confirm this condition. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions.
