Hi i suffered with the same hot water bottle between groin and testicle helped me alot.it took 3 months of doxycycline to get rid of epididymitis hope this helps a bit cheers.
Please see a physical therapist who specializes in pelvic pain. This is what cured me.
I was diagnosed with chronic epididymitis and none of the treatments from urologists worked.
I had gone through epididymis. I fully understand your situation. It appears to go away for some time and relapses. Doctors had put me on Niftran for a long time and it did not seem to work. Pain had continued even when urine test showed no infection.
It went by itself after one and half years. Pain killers did not work on me. The only thing that worked was cold compress. An ice bag held over the testicle for about 15 minutes gave a lot of relief. At times, I had to repeat cold compress 4 or 5 times a day. When I look back on those days of suffering, I wonder if a visit to a neurologist to treat the pain would have helped.
