A member asked:

What to do if i've got epididymitis again.. and i was wondering if i can treat it with flagyl?

Dr. James Lin answered

No, ...: Flagyl is specific for treating trichomonas infection, not for epididymitis, which is commonly related with STD from chlamydia with or without gonorrhea. So, see and ask Doc timely before using Flagyl by yourself.
