Apparently that is what I have at the moment... which explains why my nuts feel like they're burning.

How simply cool is modern medicine? A course of antibiotics targeted for that area and after one night on them it is starting to feel slightly better, apparently tomorrow should either be showing good improvement or none, if it is another issue.

Waking up this morning... feels a little better already. Time will tell. Dame inflammation due to some bacterial infection. Yuk! Has made for some uncomfortable sitting in the past week whilst thinking it will just go away. :whistling:

This is why spilling a drink onto yourself isn't such a bad thing. Natural disinfectant.

I had a bacterial infection a while back, confirmed by a doctor. A nurse at his office called it my "little problem"....What?! It was not an STD for god's sake. :confused: :mad: Still am not sure what caused it, though I am leaning towards the soap that I was using at the time, doc thought so too. Bacterial infections can be nasty and unpredictable.

Maybe I shared to much too. :O_o::whistling:

Glad it's feeling a little better and I hope that it caused by a more treatable bacterial infection. That would make it easier to deal with and everything.

@ Taven....

LOL :D:D:roflmao::roflmao:

@Ayesha Nicolette asked me the same thing... what caused it? The simple answer was near the same, being sometimes there is no answer to this one, it just happens.

For a little almond size thing, it can cause a good bit of discomfort. Never knew about it all before as I've never had an issue. I thought it was in the nut sack or something until researching it. "head slap"

LOL. Prostate. I remember when I had one of those, LOL

OK, I am now trying to clear the thought from my head of Anthony looking for his prostate.

:roflmao: @ ISH's post!

It is a painful condition Anthony but treatable as you know. I do hope you get better soon, it's no fun having pain in your privates!!

 

[cherryblossom]

ISH - you always make me laugh. Sorry, Anthony that's not to say your condition is laughable :eek:

I'm glad to hear you are on the mend :tup:

WOOHOOOO!

Anthony, you have helped so many of us with your website that it is a relief to finally be able to comment on something that benefits YOU!

I am a nurse and have had numerous patients with prostatitis. It's usually an acute infection but can also become chronic. It's generally an inflammation in the prostate caused by a bacterial infection and resolves wonderfully with a course of Cipro or Tetracycline.

Just be sure to drink lots of water!

Hope you're well again in no time!

 

[Nicolette]

Just be sure to drink lots of water!

I told him the same thing Kaii and I just got told "no, just need the antibiotics" :rolleyes: - what would I know after all the female issues we can have. Men have no idea.

As you can see Anthony's avatar is now very apt to his condition.

I just pray he doesn't start sharing his toilet conditions with you. Nothing much shocks me with him anymore but I guess now that he has raised the bar I should post a thread when I get vaginosis :coffee:

 

[Lady of Longbourn]

I'll join you in that vaginosis thread, Nicolette! :roflmao:

 

[Taven Carlsen]

As you can see Anthony's avatar is now very apt to his condition.

Taking my advice.

(Seriously though glad you're feeling better already, thanks for running this place for us and hope it's easy from here on in.)
