left testical
hi there. i'm 21yo guy. about a 2 months ago my left testical started to bother me. i started feeling slight pain (not really sore, just hindering sensation). on and off, then it became more persistant.(everyday it was there). i checked for any hard lumps nothing. i then went to doctor for checkup and she said it was nothing more then slight infectio/ inflamation. she then gave me pills to take (half a tablet 2 times a day for 5 days.). after while it went away, but now (few days ago) i've started to have it again. i asked health doc and said i should get anti-inflamation pills and said i should get nurofen at chemist. i bought it toaday and took it. but will this do? on package its states its merely for pain and migranes, says nothing about flamation? or what else should/can i use or is this sufficient?
thanks
thanks
W,
Nurofen (ibuprofen) has anti-inflammatory properties and should help. If not effective you'll have to see a doc again
