On cipro (ciprofloxacin) & levox for chronic prostatitis. have pain at the base of penis when sexually aroused. why & is it safe to have sex or masturbate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Discomfort with ejaculation may occur with chronic prostatitis, but it is not harmful. The discomfort is secondary to inflammation of the prostate which plays a significant role in the ejaculatory process.
