Seek a 2nd opinion: Obviously your stmptoms are oersisting and your are frustrated with your care. Get another doctors evaluation.

Question 2

i have prostatitis and taking levofloxacin 500 for 32 days. now i am having pain in my foot and weakness in knee.is this because of this antibiotic?

Accepted Answer

Reactive arthritis: Prostatitis and joint problems are 2 of the key diagnostic criteria for Reactive arthritis (old name Reiter's syndrome).  You should see your family doctor or a rheumatologist for a definite answer.

Question 3

burning sensation in right groin/thigh a few minutes after ejaculation. sounds like prostatitis. does herpes cause this or sound like a possible cause?

Accepted Answer

Many causes: Your pain could represent many things.  Your vas deferens transports sperm from your testicles via your groin.  You may have a hernia if there is a bulge present.  Prostatitis is usually accompanied by fever, pelvic/rectal pain or pain when you urinate.  A burning sensation on your thigh is usually a result of a nerve problem.  I would recommend a physical exam to assess your problem.

Question 4

i have severe pain in thighs and calf more so when i lay down doctor diagnosed prostitis do the symptoms fit ? he prescribed cipro (ciprofloxacin).

Accepted Answer

Could be vascular: Could be claudication.

Question 5

can prostatitis cause pain coming directly from testicles (bilateral), thigh pain, upper left sided pelvic pain and/or varicoceles?

Accepted Answer

Prostatitis: While prostatitis can cause referred pain to many areas such as the testes and pelvis,  is unlikely that all of the symptoms you describe are from prostatitis.   Varicoceles have no relation to prostatitis.

Question 6

what is the frequency of chronic prostatitis among men in their 30's?

Accepted Answer

Very common: Prostatitis is very common in men in their 30s. Treatment consists of antibiotics daily for 3 to 4 weeks.

Question 7

i know its not used much but i am about to take fosfomycin for chronic prostatitis. would this kill any chlaymidia or gonhorrea if it were there?

Accepted Answer

Don't depend on it: It is certainly not the drug of choice for either infection &amp; might suppress symptoms to the point you don't seek proper care.

Question 8

do a lot of people get prostatitis?

Accepted Answer

Only men: It is very common and can be treated with antibiotics. If you have continuing symptoms or concerns you may need to see a urologist.

Question 9

can too much sex with hookers cause prostatitis?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Prostatitis is a complication of urinary tract infection (UTI) in men. What you should be worried about more is catching an std, viral hepatitis, or hiv.

Question 10

please explain why does prostatitis last so long?

Accepted Answer

Because...: Prostatitis has been one of most misused daignosis, and its context has evolved and changed over time especially over the past two decades, resulting in coining a new term, chronic pelvic painful syndrome/disorder. The DX of bacterial prostatitis is made on positive bacterial culture from post-prostate massage prostate fluid and urine. So, most cases are mistreated. For detail, see doc timely.
