Detailed Answer:
Then this may be deeper infection such as prostatitis or epididimits and you should do ultrasound or scintigraphy. Try to avoid sexual I intercourse or masturbation till pain last. Also,drink plenty of fluids,raspberry tea. If there is no improvement in few days,switch antibiotic to cephalosporine. Wish you good health. Regards
