Epididymitis

[foxytaur (imported)]

when I had my testicular torsion + hydrocele long ago one of the first symptoms that developed was a mild Epididymitis(talk about triple whammy) and it was both painful and nauseating. Glad I don't have to use antibiotics anymore but I was prescribed them after the surgery. The hospital food was great though. Fricken chayote veggie stir fry was good and for dessert a mango P

This thing I find funny in my case of Epidmitis, right is that I stuck a catheter down my testicle tubing and by morning the pain was unbearible so ER I went and around of antibiotics

How the hell did you manage that?!

[lifeguardlifer (imported)]

a catheter from medical toys dot com, and trying to unpotty train mself. I didn't insert it correctly and went into the other tube

[Paolo]

After looking this up, anatomy, etc., I really don't know how you could have done this, OR found a catheter small enough to get in there - which would also have to have been too small to be an effective catheter to begin with.

I slide the catheter when my penis was up against my belly and it slide into my tube toward my testicles, does that explain it

[Paolo]

No, it doesn't.

Not trying to be rude, but I don't believe a word of this.

I am sure that Uncle Flo, who is more experienced, will have something to say on the matter as well.

Catheters are inserted properly perpendicular to the pelvas and goes into the bladder, right around the pernium is a second tube that connects the testicles and when u r close to orgasism the bladder closes tightlyso none of the semen/seminal fluid goes into the bladder. Can any back me up on this?

[Uncle Flo (imported)]

The second (distal,external) urinary sphincter does close to restrict semen from making a retrograde ejaculation into the bladder. However, my sources (both print and internet) show the ductus deferens and the seminal vesicles to be much too small to receive a urinary catheter. These ducts enter the urethra at the edge of the prostate which is located in the curve of the urethra near the bladder. If you are inserting a catheter into any tubes other than the urethra there must be a massive defect in one of the ducts. Otherwise I can not give credit to the account. I, myself have experience with catheters and other insertions, large and small, and I have found that no matter the position of the penis they invariably follow the urethra. --FLO--

I'm with Uncle Flo.

I had an indwelling cath for over a year (long time ago) and used to change the old for a new one every week and flush it every day.

No way it went anywhere than into your bladder.

What you did was to give yourself a urinary tract infection and the antibiotics cured it.

Be careful with being sterile and ultra-clean if you are going to do anything with catheters. I had nurses who taught me how to touch, grab, move and disinfect me, the lube, my fingers, my penis, latex gloves and the catheter. It was a little project or sterility from boiling glassware every day to preparing cleaning solution, and all sorts of unsexy stuff. But I never got a UTI or a Kidney infection.
