A member asked:
I had prostatitis (bacterial) and completed antibiotic course. but, still i feel a little discomfort in perineum after ejaculation.what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Monitor: sometimes it takes a few weeks after an infection to have no discomfort It sometimes is still swollen and takes time to heal. Sometimes an anti inflammatory can help There are cases were it is a permanent or chronic discomfort If worse or lasts a moth or so then see provider for additional testing
