I have been experiencing symptoms of prostatitis for five months, including redness around the urethral opening, penile pain, extreme tip sensitivity, rectal pain, perineal pain, penile/testicular pain, dribbling after urination, and redness around the urethral opening. I am 37 years old and currently taking Quercetin, Amitriptyline for prostatitis, and Metoprolol for my heart. I have been prescribed various antibiotics such as Amoxicillin, Bactrim, Levaquin, and Doxycycline, but my symptoms persist. I have undergone tests including a cystoscopy, testicular ultrasound, and PCR testing for various infections, all of which were unremarkable or negative. I am concerned about the possibility of an infection that might have been missed and am seeking a second opinion on my diagnosis.
