    Difficult to say really. What was the cause, infection or vasectomy. 

    If vasectomy caused epididymitis then it doesn't go away. Constant pain and swelling.

    if infection it can take some time

      PVPS is quite common. Mine started immediately but it can come on years later. Lets hope things settle down.  It's not treatable.  Had mine 2 years
