Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The swelling due to epididymitis will start to subside 1 to 3 days after starting Antibiotics. Rarely it might take 4 days, but if the swelling is increasing along with pain even after 4 days of treatment you may have to re-visit your treating doctor. It can be considered that the present antibiotics are not working or there might be extension of the infection to the testis (Orchitis).
Please approach your doctor if you observe the below signs after 4 day
1. Increasing swelling
2. more tender
3.Redness
4. Swelling in the left testicle
5. Start to having fever
Please revert back with an update on the present condition. I will guide you on how to proceed further. Till then do continue the antibiotics advised by your doctor.
Waiting for your response,
