UTI to epididymytis

I'm a 16 yr old male. A few months back I was sexually active. The next day after intercourse i started having symptoms and had an appointment made. The dr told me i had a UTI and I was given BACTRIM SULFAMETHOXALE. The antibiotic worked well, but a few days later the infection came back. Then i took ciprofloxacin, and the same thing happend. I have given up on antibiotics and to manage this I always drink lots of water, but a few weeks later I started getting testicular pain during urination. Could this be epididymitis?

Okay you never said that you were tested for any STDs, you also don't say if it was protected or not... Maybe you should get yourself tested; this will save you from the wonder of having an STD.
epididymal cyst can cause testicular pain...

Below I have posted a link to an experts response to anothers post on the same issue... To get more information about epididymal cyst you could go to the urology forum or talk to your doctor.

It might be that. It is not a STD if it happened the day after sex.
