Understanding Testicular Pain

Testicular pain refers to discomfort or ache in one or both testicles. It can be sudden or gradual and may indicate underlying conditions requiring medical attention. Common causes include infections like epididymitis, trauma, torsion, varicocele, or inflammation.

Symptoms and When to Seek Immediate Care

Symptoms may include swelling, redness, nausea, or fever alongside pain. If pain is sudden, severe, or accompanied by nausea or swelling, seek urgent medical care to prevent complications such as testicular torsion, which requires emergency surgery.

Diagnosis of Testicular Pain

Diagnosis involves a physical exam, ultrasound imaging, and urine tests. These help identify infections, structural issues, or torsion. Accurate diagnosis guides appropriate treatment, which may include medication or surgery.

How Is Testicular Pain Treated?

Treatment depends on the cause. Antibiotics are used for infections, pain relievers for discomfort, and surgical intervention for torsion or structural issues. Early treatment prevents complications and preserves testicular function.
