For bacterial orchitis, can anything be used effectively besides floroquinonlones or bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim)?(allergy & reaction..) not uti, std,or mumps. was tested.

Yes.: First line therapy for this is ceftriaxone plus doxycycline. Maybe you do not have bacterial epididymo-orchitis. What does your doc think?
