A member asked:

Diagnosed epididymitis 2 weeks ago using cipro (ciprofloxacin). last week urinary results were clear, but i have still a little sore, when it resolves completely?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Epididymitis: The pain and swelling from acute epididymitis can linger for some time. In addition to the antibiotics, anti-inflammatories can also be helpful.
