See a doctor: You need to be seen by a physician to be evaluated. You may have a urinary tract infection, epididymitis, prostatitis. It sounds like you are already being treated with Cipro (ciprofloxacin) and levaquin?

You: Should be worked up by a urologist to see what is the reason u have UTI so frequently. Anything obstructing the urine flow would cause what you have. Kub is a old fashion examination. I am talking to look up in your bladder and also to visualized the kidneys as well in one way or another. I hope you do not push anything up ur urethra. Some youngsters may just experiment...

Need urology work-up: Utis in young men are abnormal. Note at least 2 have been treated with antibiotics. Should get renal/bladder + scrotal/testicular ultrasound examinations if not yet done. Then careful cystoscopic (telescopic) examination of urethra & bladder. You might have a structural abnormality such as undiagnosed urethral valves, urethral diverticulum +/- reflux of urine into escalatory ducts or vas deferens.
