prostatitis can certainly cause those symptoms especially if your doctor examined your prostate and determined that you did indeed have this disease. please stay on your cipro but make a follow up appointment with your urologist at the end of the course just in case. herpes tends to rear its ugly head shortly after the onset of symptoms so without the characteristic tiny painful blisters that are typical of this disease the chance that you have herpes is not very high. with that said it is not normal to continue to have persistent pain at the tip of your penis so something is wrong. you may have to have some additional diagnostic tests.
