I'm having this consistent mild pain in my testicle, mostly on the left side. My doctor thought it might be epididymitis and put me on antibiotics, but it's been three weeks and I'm still in pain and feeling uncomfortable. I've had ultrasounds for my scrotum, kidneys, and bladder, and everything seems normal. I also got my testosterone levels checked, and it's at 327 ngdL. Is this a normal situation, or should I be worried about something else going on?

A testosterone level of 327 ngdL is not typically a cause for concern, and it is not usually linked to epididymitis. If your symptoms persist despite antibiotic treatment, it's important to follow up with your doctor, as there may be other underlying factors contributing to the ongoing pain.
