A member asked:
What can be the cause of epididymitis when my test results for any stis came back negative?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Epididymitis: First confirm epididymitis, which usually doesn't cause testicular aching or pain without enlargement and tenderness to touch. When caused by infection, it almost always involves only one testicle. In addition to gonorrhea and chlamydia, urinary tract infection can cause epididymitis. Certain autoimmune diseases and drug reactions also can do it. If uncertain, see a urologist or infec disease doc.
