A member asked:
How longs epididymitis take to clear up? i got put on doxycycline 100mg and got a shot of ciprofloxacin

A month or more: Perhaps you mean an injection of ceftriaxone, not ciprofloxacin. Ceftriaxone + doxycycline is standard treatment for gonorrhea or chlamydia, including epididymitis while waiting for test results. If so, pain and testicular swelling should start to improve in 2-3 days, but it could take a few weeks to return to normal. Discuss with the doctor or clinic treating you. Good luck.
