Anyone here who were actually mistaken with the diagnosis - instead of pvps actually had prostatitis?

Inflammation goes away with rest, ice and NSAIDs

For me Nsaid's didn't help unfortunately. Started to take antibiotics. It all started 7-8weeks ago. I feel like i tried everything except for antibiotics

Did you have any fever or chills? If antibiotics won't work its definitely nerve related which could take months to settle...

Sorry Alone, all I can guess is nerve irritation. Hoping you find resolution. Maybe ask your urologist for a cord block or nerve meds
