Testicle discomfort for 2 days..
I'm normally not too worried about small pains here & there as they're normal to have once in a while..but I've had very slight testicular pain since yesterday. Nothing too bad. I feel perfect if I sit for a long time..but once I start walking, the pain starts. It's not a sharp pain (thankfully), it's kinda the same dull ache as if someone kicked you there..but obviously not that painful.
I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow just to check it out. I highly doubt it's anything serious or dangerous, but I'm 30 now so I gotta watch out for these things. I don't think it's a torsion because those are supposed to REALLY hurt. And I don't think it's a sign of cancer or anything because I know that pain is rarely a symptom, but rather a lump, which I don't have. If anyone has experienced something similar, please post. |

I had a similar problem about 8 years ago, nothing serious, just a dull ache. I went to the Doc. who immediately sent me to a specialist for a scan. This in itself scared the s**t out of me. It was like, “If he’s sending me there then he must think there’s something wrong.”
DON’T WORRY if your doc does this. It’s routine and it’s their only way to find out if there is a problem. In my case, as in 99% of all cases I guess, there was no problem. They didn’t give me any reason for the aching and it lasted for some months but knowing that there was nothing wrong lessened the pain a little. (I put the problem down to the damn butcher who did my vasectomy about 3 years before, but that’s another story.) So my advice is, DON’T WORRY, just see your doc and get it checked out ASAP. Good luck tomorrow, and let us know how you get on. Last edited by scoobe; 10-06-2004 at 04:40 AM.. |

I'm cool. The doc said it was no big deal.. definitely nothing dangerous. She said sometimes you can get a strain that lasts for a few days or so. She said it COULD be a minor bacterial thing, so she gave me some antibiotics just in case.
That's it. Whew! Thanks for the support |

I've pulled muscles and had the pain run through my nuts before. I could always associate it with straining, especially when I knew I had done something.
