Question: what is the best antibiotic to treat chronic epididymitis?
Answer: If you have a definite infection, you will be given an appropriate antibiotic (doxycycline, co-amoxiclav, ofloxacin or trimethoprim). Most patients do not need antibiotics and respond to treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs. The most effective of these is ibuprofen, which you can buy in chemists or supermarkets.
