Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Testicle And Groin Area

i am having pain in my left testicle and groin. I have been to emergency twice. I have had two ultra sounds done. One ultrasound found an iguinal hernia and another found a Varicocele. Also found inflamation in the Epididitmis. hence the antibiotic i think. i had a surgery done where they went in through my belly button with a camera and the uroloigist said that they felt neither was in need for sugery. I have been on antibiotics for 11 days already but the pain is still there. The pain is somewhat tolerable if i laydown and do nothing but never goes away.

Hi
Greetings.
I understand your concern .
Most probably your pain could have been because of hernia getting partly obstructed and ending up in casualty.
I hope that was repaired and you are free of hernia now.
Coming to the second reason for pain is of epididymis infection.
Even if you take antibiotics for 2 to 3 weeks the pain may not subside as the infection may not be corrected completly.
There may be associated testis and prostatic involvement which might need prolonged antimicrobial treatment. An urology consultation will help you in confirming the pain and continuing antibiotics .
So I suggest you to take an expert opinion.Hope my answer helps you. Regards
