Testicular pain can stem from infections, injuries, or medical conditions. Accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment are vital for recovery and preventing complications.
Testicular pain refers to discomfort or pain originating from one or both testicles. It can vary in severity and duration, often signaling underlying health issues that require medical evaluation.
Infections such as epididymitis or orchitis often cause pain, swelling, and redness. These conditions are typically treated with antibiotics.
A direct blow or injury during sports or accidents can result in pain, swelling, or bruising.
Enlarged veins within the scrotum can cause dull, aching pain often worsened by standing or physical activity.
A twisting of the spermatic cord leading to sudden, severe pain and swelling. It requires urgent surgical intervention to preserve testicular function.
Inguinal hernias can cause discomfort and may be associated with bulging in the groin area.
Healthcare providers typically perform a physical exam, ultrasound imaging, and laboratory tests to determine the cause of pain. Early diagnosis helps prevent long-term complications.
Antibiotics for infections, pain relievers, and anti-inflammatory drugs are common treatments.
Emergency surgery is necessary for conditions like testicular torsion. Other surgeries may be performed for hernias or varicoceles.
Supportive measures include scrotal elevation, ice packs, and rest to reduce discomfort.
If experiencing sudden, severe pain, swelling, nausea, or fever, immediate medical attention is vital to prevent testicular loss or other serious complications.
