Hi, I am a 22 year old that recently went to a urologist and was told that i might have mild epididymitis. I took docycycline (twice a day) and antiinflammatories, both for 7 days. The pain has generally subsided.. but I still have some very mild lingering discomfort when i palpate that area of my testicles .. does this mean that the medication didn't work? ... also .. should I refrain from masturbating? (I haven't done so since the diagnosis..)
