Hi, The meds should quickly get this in order, if you are not showing signs of great improvement in 7-10 days be spicious that the meds or diagnosis is wrong. I agree it sounds like epididimitus. use ice on the groin with a towel over it, just to keep it cool, the coolness will pull out the swelling and then of coarse keep the feet elevated too.
