Yes: unless you are allergic to septra. Can be inflammation in other parts of the scrotal sac around the testicle, as the epididymis, which doesn't show on urine or blood testing, wish you well

It sounds like: you and your Urologist did not come to the meeting of the minds of mutual understanding! I agree..from your report there doesn't seem to be an indication for the antibiotic but perhaps there is another facet of the case that you failed to understand or the doctor failed to communicate. Contact the doctor, ask for more explanation for antibiotic recommendation. If still unsure, seek 2nd opinion.
