pelvic pain in men resulting from chlamydia?
36 hours ago I was given a full range of STD tests and given azithromycin for presumptive chlamydia. I'm a man (sex was vaginal/oral) and I have most of the typical symptoms of chlamydia (pain in urethra, testicles), MINUS discharge and PLUS persistent pain in my lower pelvis, around my bladder (I think). I've read that true UTIs in young men are quite rare. So, two questions: 1) Is pelvic pain in men a normal symptom of chlamydia, or an indication that something else is going on? and 2) How long after taking azithromycin should I look for the symptoms to be clear? (I've read some swelling and pain may persist after the infection is clear.) Thank you very much for your help.
Yes, I know. I guess I'll just wait on the results and go from there. Thank you!
chlamydia, gonorrhea, ngu and trich was accurate then. syphilis, herpes, hiv and hepatitis testing wasn't.
it can take a week to 10 days for symptoms to clear if indeed this is chlamydia causing them.
how long prior to testing had you last had sex?
