Dear Doctor,


I am really Thankful for your time and your answers it is make me really  feel much better but on the other hand still worry since still I have the same symptoms, but excuse me to ask couple of questions:

first of all: the Sexual activities:  the last unprotected sex I had was an anal sex with lady (not active sexually ) "8 months before I start getting the pain" any other experiences was either protect or many years ago"


1- One of the doctors says: since you had an chronic inflammation because of the Infection you had, it can take up to 8 weeks until these symptoms disappear, and suggest playing some sports to speed up the recovery, my question is: with an chronic inflammation cases how long it will take until the symptoms gone after the Antibiotic course "assuming if it was an Infection".

2- Since doctors here still diagnose this as an STD even though all the lab test I did was NEGATIVE, is it helpful if I ask the lady "I had anal sex" with her before to do an STDs test? is it easier to find the STIs on the ladies than men?

Hello,
Thank you for your post and welcome to our forum.
Your symptoms are certainly consistent with chronic epididymo-orchitis, which can have many causes, including STDs.  However all your tests have been negative and you have been treated with a number of antibiotics, which would have cleared all possible STDs.  Therefore you cannot have any STDs at present.  I can also confirm that the management that you have received is correct and therefore I would advise you to continue with the advice given by your doctors.  I would not recommend any further tests.
Best wishes,
Dr José
