lets just take a moment of peace real quick, to appreciate how much of a legend this guy is. we all can relate, we all questioned at one point if we had it. this man just cleared up a lot of anxiety for alot of us.
“Sometimes it just hurts” thanks for that. I think we get a bit over excited when think too much and google everything. If it hurts for a long time see a specialist. Sound advice and thanks for your time.
Yeah, pain that is related to hernia surgery. The docs don’t tell you about potential damage done to the vas deferrens, and testicle, primarily, because men’s health issues are often ignored, and men are just expected to just deal with it
I was having sporadic, daily burning/aching type pain in my scrotum, often when I was sitting upright in a chair or lying in bed at night. Would radiate up into my pelvic area, too. No swelling, no blood in urine or semen. Had been exercising regularly but had to stop. Thought maybe I pulled something. My regular Dr. thought it was prostatitis. Prescribed antibiotics which helped but therm After about a week of being off the antibiotics, pain reappeared. I realized I couldn't keep tolerating the pain, so I went to a urologist and he diagnosed Pelvic Floor pain. Sounds weird but he prescribed pelvic floor therapy. After about 3 sessions, pain started going away. Now, 3 months later, no pain at all. Totally got my life back.
Non bacterial prostatitis is code for doctors who don't know about pelvic floor disfunction. If you are having sharp pain in your testicle it could be your hypertonic pelvic floor flaring up your pudendal nerve. If you are having pain after ejaculation or defecating and you have to urinate more often, it could be your pelvic floor. See a pelvic floor therapist who does internal therapy, you will not regret it. FYI pudendal nerve pain can be bad enough to make you pass out, it can change your life.
It is scary, guys and I am scared too. But we can do this and thrive through the pain. If the pain becomes so bad, see a doctor. Once you see a primary care provider or a urologist, first mention the pain: -When it started, -What symptoms you noticed: peeing patterns, spasms, what sides ache, what you did or didn't do. Bring up if it could be these issues, and ask what tests are needed to get rid of each reason until you are certain it's not a big issue. Here's what I would ask my doctor: Is this prostatitis? Could this be epididymitis? Could this be Orchialgia? Pelvic floor spasms? Any tests that could help get rid of other reasons? Could consistent masturbation like 3x a day cause this pain? Any treatment options that aren't invasive? They will run some tests, suggest painkillers, and if they are negative nothing is anatomically wrong. Of course, if the pain is still bad, there are other solutions like particular medications, seeing a physical therapist for pelvic floor issues, injections or procedures like nerve blocking. Don't be afraid of the future or having surgery; it will probably won't lead to something so severe. Even so, you'll be better.
I had a pain on my right testicle for months and it has drove me crazy. Visiting the hospitals 20 times. Getting my balls checked by multiple people. Getting multiple ultrasounds scans. Alll showed positive. Than a doctor said maybe it’s anxiety causing the pain. Once I realised that, the pain went away a few days later
Ugh I’m in this boat. Healthy 33 year old guy, got checked out and dropped the pants down for the doctor and he felt the area, said I was fine with no lumps or swelling and he didn’t think there was any need for an ultrasound. It’s been almost a week now. No swelling, no lumps, no unbearable pain (knock on wood lol), just a weird sore ache. Mainly the left nut. Idk what else to do hence why I’m here on this thread 😂. And of course I’m thinking all sorts of worst case scenarios, but has anyone else ever had something similar? Dr. Said it’s not torsion or epididymys. Any input whatsoever would be greatly appreciated
@@TheMotivationMan10How did you go? I have had the same similar issue as you described and its the 2nd time now after an ultrasound and mri 6months ago. Thinking its got to do with stress at work or poor posture fr sitting down on a chair for too long.
Ive had testicular pain for 6 months. I’ve seen 4 doctors and 2 of them were urologists. I also did an uktrasound. They all said everything looked normal and they didn’t know what to tell me. I can’t believe they couldn’t tell me what you explained in this video. Now I have to suffer
Same here. I have been suffering since 7 years. Went to doctors and urologist, done abdominal ultrasound, testicle, pelvic ultrasound, ct scan but nothing show up. Doctors have no answer 😟. And pain is still there, when I touch I can feel it. My testicle pain is like on and off in every 2/3 months. I’m so frustrated
I had the same issue now I'm pain free At least to one of my nuts. I'm about to have surgey to my other one. There is something that could help. I'll be glad to talk to you about it.
@eduar ed Yeah, my pain has been here or there. Sometimes even months apart, so it's not like it's constant. But if I accidentally touch them wrong they can hurt for days in a row. Even just jumping can be enough force to make them hurt. I think I have varicocele, which is the enlargement of the veins in the scrotum.
Put on ice for like 10 minutes until the cratum shrinks in and testicles hold in back. This pain might be caused by testicles falling way down falling muscles and vessels down putting tension on them. By freezing the scrotum back it pulls everything back in place.. It helps a lot.

I gotta say after a year of crushing testicle pain, it is life destroying. Mine was a very small inguinal hernia with fat pushing on the nerves that ever doctor swore couldn't be causing my pain. It was. Good luck fellas. I feel for you
I appreciate this video. I have been to 3 urologists in the past 2 months, all in the same group. They sure did not explain stuff like this to me. It was somewhat uncaring and feeling like an island by myself! They threw up their arms so to speak like they have no idea. I can understand that, but give us guys some comfort of putting our minds at ease. This is very bothersome. I have had the right testicle pain for a good part of the past 3 months. They told me inflammation of the Epididymitis and did not get any antibiotics although I had penis inflammation. I have had no discharge just an ache, urin clear each time. I can walk and do pelvic floor exercises but do not feel confident in running yet. I took 8 days of Doxycillion which had some success because my primary doctor felt something had to be done. I take Ibroprophen and seems to help a bit also, but this continues. Anyway Dr., with all this, I have had back and piriformis issues on the right side, all at the same time! In your estimation, can there be a connection with a compressed nerve somewhere causing my groin issues? I feel, treat the nerve and this pain maybe history. What is your thoughts?
@@peterobrien2537 I am doing much better. I am very certain this was nerve related. Inflammation and muscle tightness in lower back and pelvis. It very slowly got better but I still stretch and occasion have aches. Still not running but do walk with no issues .
@@peterobrien2537 No but I fully expect it. One thing thff at worked for me thff at may sound strange is that I massaged that area behind it and believe it or not, it worked. I look at it this way, strange or not as long asit helped me, not problems there since. Also, using a tennis ball on the piriformis helped with that as well. Now I know how to fix it but no doctor explained any of that to me. It was a waste of time and money.
@@stargazer2756 glad it worked for you it ain't matter what it is as long as it worked for you, its all amazing even i would try that gently thanks mate and ya, ur right urologists are no use here
Thank you! I was able to calm myself and my son while my husband is out of town and unreachable. Making him an appointment to just be sure he is perfectly fine.
I find myself watching this video again and I’m very surprised at how dismissive he is about testicular pain, it reminds me of my dad who went to the doctor because almost every morning for two weeks, he woke up with a headache so he took Tylenol and then he was fine. The doctor told him he was fine, it was probably stress related. Two week later he had a seizure while showering and three months after that he was dead from brain cancer. Also, My mother was in the hospital with chess pain that shot into her arm, they did some test said there was nothing wrong with her and I said she was in so much pain she fell out of her hospital bed, I told the two doctors this and they said she had an anxiety attack. I told them that was no anxiety attack, they said they were going to release her the next day, I was freaking out trying to plan what to do next, well I never had the chance she was put in the ICU at 3am and she died 10 hours later. It has been my experience that when doctors have no clue about what’s wrong, they default to there is nothing wrong but never ever trust these doctors, find someone who will listen as long as you feel something is not right.
I have got it checked twice lol but nothing. The second time pain was severe and I thought I had tortion. Along with the tortion I was 90 percent sure I had testicular cancer lol. Never Google your symptoms!
I got hit in my right testicle twice while cycling in January 2020. The pain went away after a few days. When I was doing exercise in April 2020, my right testicle suddenly started paining. The pain lasted a few days and now I'm having a heaviness sensation innmy right testicle since then. It's almost a year now. I have consulted with two urologist and they both checked my testicle and said nothing is wrong. I even did ultrasound and it was normal too. I don't know what's wrong with my ball 😓
@@abc0583 i'm glad to hear that. My pain just started today, i woke up early this morning but wasn't feeling any pain yet then i fell back asleep and when i woke up i started to feel the pain like it came from out of nowhere? Kinda got me concerned. Looks like i'll start drinking more water too. Thanks
I’ve seen 5 doctors and none have given me a good answer because everything either seems normal or just a minor abnormality. I’ve been in pain 24/7 for weeks and it gets all the way up to a 8.5/10. This can’t be normal.
Hello everyone, I see many of us are suffering with this testicular pain. I would post my symptoms here every 2-3 days just to let some of you get an idea if your symptoms are matching mine. I know its not an ideal thing to do bcoz everyone is different, but this could provide some relief in case i would get better Since 4-5 days now i have intermittent but mostly constant mild testicular pain that becomes moderate at night, never severe though, urine test-negative for any blood, bacteria WBC or nitrites Blood test-normal for all CBC and kidney Hba1c physical exam- doc hasn't done US and thinks nothing serious going on other symptoms i have : frequent urination on few days with 2-3 times urination at night, mild burning inside penile urethra after peeing but this is not always there, after masturbation i get this mild-moderate pain in urethra that goes away after 4-6 hours completely Will post again after 2 days
6 day update : testicle pain is better now not constant like before, its off and on mostly at night, 200mg advil takes care of that, but now i have mild perinuem pain (THE ONLY SYMPTOM I HAVE) maybe coz i drove 8 hours yesterday who knows, rest all is good
9 days update: all symptoms gone but still scrotal discomfort that wakes me up at night to urinate once , can't get proper sleep and pain for a few seconds when i put pressure while sitting on testicle....90% cured but still struggling with a few symptoms , hang in there guys this shud get better with time
i had this pain in my left and i thought i had cancer but i went too my doctor he did a exam and he said everything is fine and i also have anxiety so i worried about it a lot but guys we can get through this it still aches too this day but very bearable and i think it’s got a lot too do with your mind and how much you think about it too work yourself up
I'm SOO scared honestly I'm having a pain that ranges from a 1-4 and it comes and goes maybe about 5 times a day and that testicle is higher I don't feel any lumps or anything but I'm so scared
when looking at my nuts everything looks the same, no lumps our swelling. When I feel the left ball it hurt when I touch it side ways, still don't feel any lumps, but can't rub long at all to see if they are any lumps, but what I've felt is ok with lumps, not saying there isn't any. Thank you for your video and I feel better knowing its normal for things like this to happen and if this goes on ill go to the doctor and see what they see, I need to say this never happen until my doctor put on water pills, two different kinds and I've had ppl ask why two? I have no idea why he put me on Furosemide 20 mg and Spironolactone 25 mg both one a day, did that have anything to do with this pain? thank you again man.
Actually, such is common with diuretics ("Water Pills") The reason why is because these medications can interfere with electrolytes and can therefore cause pain in the muscle tissue. Notably there is a significant amount of smooth muscle in the area of the testicles.
Man6 years of dealing with pain that in the last 2 years getting so bad its not only everyday but just horrible pain...masses inside one but randomly disappeared and my urologist keeps numbing every few months 🙄 along with told it just happens, absolutely ridiculous especially when it gets so bad it interrupts sleep or work life
I came to this video, cause my right testicular was very sore for solid 4 days. I was worried thinking having cancer, and freaking out. Then after feeling them and making sure they have no lumps. The pain was getting worse and worse. I couldn’t even walk. And one of my older friends had the same experience and told me if I was wearing any tight underwear. I realised I wore my tight underwear and tight skinny jeans once for 10 hours work shift. Just 4 days ago. What Did I do was slept with no under wear while sleeping. Now the pains gone. I was freaking out a lot thinking why this pain is not going away. Try this it would help believe me.
Hey Doc, so I have had testicular pain for 8-10 months. I have been to two urologists, treated for epididymitis without success and I had a bilateral epididymectomies two months ago. I'm still in pain. Ultrasound shows small collections of fluid that are reported as "normal" after scrotal surgery. There are times I'm crying due to the pain. Right now, it is about a 5/10 and aches into my stomach on the inguinal regions bilaterally. I think the doc is running out of thoughts for this. Since I have had back surgeries years ago, I was told it might be that. I went to the back doctor and he didn't think there was anything he could do to help. Am I just at the point of living with this pain? Or do I push for microdenervation? I know you said you haven't had much luck with that. That concerns me. I don't want an orchiectomy. So many reasons I don't want that. And there's always the possibility of phantom pain that lives on. I've heard about botox in the cord. Any other thoughts?
Please give me an update! I’ve been having 4 infections back to back in the last 9 months. I’m thinking of just chopping off my left nut since it ruins a whole month to a month and of half of my life at a time. Aches and pains. It sucks.
Try Homeopathy, I'll suggest Bharat homeopathy in India which has some innovation, they might help you with pain... Until then try Arnica 200 2-3 drops from any homeopathy pharmacy
@@Robadobo that quackery is recognised by government in many countries plus it cured many people even incurable disease...

Testicular pain may caused by havin problems in spain, back pain. It seems that you feel the pain in your testicles but you really feel is the pain radiating from around your spain. Sadly, this is personal experience. :( The pain in the testicles and around it vanishes instantly when I can lay down and the nervesaround my spain are not squeezed. Tried, works :) but on daily basis it is a hell!
Bicycling accident 2002 chronic left testicular pain for a year or so.. wore an athletic support and ibruprofen. Got tired of that visited with a Urologist who suggested an epididymectomy upon examination. Had a nerve block instead of anesthesia and associated risks. The block was only partial as soon as the surgery began he hit a spot that caused me to jump off the table.(Hmm! i wonder if the knife slipped a tiny bit?) Ended up with a spinal headache which required a blood patch and another trip to the OR. Minimal results in my case. Visited with another renown urologist and a scotal US which was normal. "Why doc am I still having pain then?" where is it specifically he asks? and I pointed to the area(s) starting in the left side of the back wrapping around down into the groin. He said its the SI joint go see a chiroprator.. which I have many times and it helps short term. Also, had physical therapy and SI joint injection with cortisone which proved more diagnostic then therapeutic. Apparently then its not just the SI joint !? Temporary Spermatic cord block maybe? but I was told it could cause permanent numbness in the family jewels. Whether it was temporary (and worked) or permanent. Pudental nerve and other pathways and names I can't pronounce that apparently some type of block could be done as well. I feel as though I've been through the mill and then some and still suffer. To be honest if I had to do this over in my case I may have avoided the surgery longer suffering and annoyed by it. But, I do question what happened during that surgery and perhaps some tissue and nerve endings being damaged whether the knife slipped or not? Pathology I was told showed the epididymis was damaged/diseased from the bicycling accident(?) The trauma itself to the epididymis without any of the rest of all this might have been all it was. Did it need to be removed? Only God knows...My suggestion even at this juncture. Be patient and go the conservative path as long or as much as possible. Thats my STORY and we all one don't we and it is still being written. God Bless all those that read this and I pray it has done some good to other kind souls out there that are suffering, fed up and still in limbo. arrivederci e i migliori auguri ...
Hi, 8 months ago i had a varicolectomy, the cause of my grade 3 varicocele was the excessive stretching done by my trainer (knee to chest stretch) after working out. Up to now, there is still discomfort when i am sitted for a long period of time like 60 to 80 minutes, as per my second ultrasound, everything seems to be normal except for that .25 epididymal cyst versus spermatocele findings which is not (most likely) the contributor of pain according to the Urologist that i consulted with. Accdg to him tje pain could neuropathic, he prescribed lyrica, there is improvement but the pain is still there. The pain feels like a stabbing sensation and there is also this tickling sensation (which is not a discomfort) that i feel after the varicocelectomy. I would like to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you so much and god bless
Hi Luis, The success rates of many of these procedures is fairly poor and risky. In my case I believe there was a slight slip of the scalpel (the nerve block was not done correctly) just as the surgery began likely nicking a nerve compounded with scar tissue. I read that somewhere between (10-40%) of patients experience chronic neuropathic pain from the surgery. One of the treatments for this is (SCAB) Spermatic cord anesthesia. This is used prior to denervation surgery which is quite risky but it can bring good relief if(?) your one of the fortunate ones. SCAB has been in the urological and anaesthesia literature for 40 years or more. Any urologist/anaesthesiologist worth their salt should know how to do this procedure which can take place in just a few minutes of time with the risk of bruising at the injection site and possible increased pain temporarily. They have found that a series of these injections can lower the pain level considerably preventing the need for more invasive treatment. I'm seriously looking into it at this time. Other than that its rest, NSAID's, cold packs, elevating the scrotum by placing a rolled up towel/cloth elevating the scrotum while sitting has been helpful. Sitting or *bike riding which I love is a *no no presently. This is one of those things that there is not enough money to fund research and treatments for even though it's quite pervasive for a lot of men. Dry needling, chiropractic care, physical therapy, acupuncture etc may be helpful and of coarse prayer. I hope this has done some good. WE nee to Be cautious about jumping ahead of ourselves and not allowing the body to heal. Sometimes that will involve suffering for a while longer allowing the body to heal rather than running to doctors and specialist all over the place looking for a quick fix. Pray you find the care, compassion, expertise and relief your seeking. Cordiali Saluti, Raffaleo
Personally, I was able to release a lot of pain by stretching my inner leg. There’s a muscle called the gracilis which is very near to your scrotum. I’m not a doctor at all but I found that stretching that muscle really helped.
Stretching helps me to I have pain in my right one pretty constant for along time now and I have seen two urologist about the same pain 10 years apart and got a ultrasound both times and everything came back good both times stretching in a split position helps me the most brings it from a 5 to a 1 or 0
My pain is around a 5 + daily non stop. Ultrasounds all say everything looks spectacular. Had my nerves numbed to see if they cld just clip the nerves to relieve the pain. It didn't work, so now the best thing an osu urologist can suggest is pelvic floor exercises going for pt. It's been affecting my sex life for a while now, to the point I don't even want to engage. Always in a bad mood from constant pain for the last 5 yrs.
Hi @jdww89, are you better now? I have been going through same situation as you for 10 months. Pelvic floor/kegel muscles, you’re on the right track. I had level 4/5 pain 24/7. Finally found a pelvic floor specialist, after 4 sessions, I’m 90% better now. Let me know and I can give you more details.
For me testicular pain was the first initial symptom. Later, it progressed to urinary retention. Turned out to be a perinureal cyst in the lumbar region at arround L1-L2. So this isn't necessarily true- pain is always a pathological sign by inherent definition- even if the cause of such isn't particularly significant.
What if I have pain in my right testicle and can also feel it in my stomach and the pain feels connected but it’s weird Bc they are so far apart in the body
So I've had pain in one of them for a few years and it's steadily got worse. I had a normal physical exam today and now I'm curious what else it could be.
@@LolLol-gd7ly Apparently I am an unlucky soul who is, "just going to have pain" for the rest of my days. The only other option would be that I have prostate cancer which my being 32, no other symptoms is highly unlikely. I did get a vasectomy and my recovery period was well over a month. My Vas Deferens on my right side is 4-5x larger than my left side so that didn't help either. No clue why that was the case either. The Urologist I went is one of the top in Dallas so I am happy with his medical opinion but no so much the result.
@@ValonHonor there is a solution I'll be glad to talk to you. I've had this imbarrassing issue for six years. I'm doing so much better now. I'm 41 yrs old.
Ive had ultrasounds, even an mri and everything comes back normal. My urologist said its normal and common. Im considering getting an epidymectomy to help relieve the pain.
Everything is normal, but his pain in the testicle. And I saw him cyanosis in the left of everything painful, and I went to the doctor and he told me everything is normal and you do not feel nor after that everything is painful.
About a month ago, I was at work and about 4 hrs into my shift I started getting stomach pains. I noticed my left testicle was higher than normal. I'm a cashier and, luckily, I just stand in place, not walking much walking. When I walked it would hurt. I ask to go to the restroom and I would put pressure asked the area. I would push the testicle back down to where it's supposed to be, and it felt better. Since that one time, it's been OK except for once a week. I would have an uncomfortable feeling like my pubic hair was being pulled. Could it be my underwear or do I need to see a doctor?
I’ve been having this pain for about a day on my left one and it’s heightened whenever I’m laying down this made me feel better I thought I was done for lol

I havent smoked pot in over a decade. A month ago, i startded smoking pot for no reason. Iv had ball pain since i started smoking a month ago and the pain is a dull discomfort. About a 2 to a 4. Im going to stop smoking and see if the pain goes away.
I’ve been having super weak dull pain in my testes for 3 months, sometimes it seems to be coming from the left other times it’s the right but usually it’s both, doesn’t feel like it’s my testes though it feels like it’s the nerves cause sometimes it goes down my leg. I read an article that said dull pain is a sign of cancer it was one of those click next for the next page so they can get more money from the views. I then made an apointment and after setting it up I TH-camd it and this video made me feel a lot better, my balls themselves don’t have any irritation at all it just seems like an ache that comes out of nowhere but ends in my balls, really weird feeling. Still gunna go to the apt now tho just to feel better
I just came back from running and felt uncomfortable in that area and i wanted to know if it was abnormal and i think its just pain so thankfully its nothing to worry about
Hello doc.. I have an idea.. How about a video on Cystoscopy; I understand it is invasive, painful and an infection risk as it is pushed through the narrow urethra . Can the same results of information be obtained with an MRI or an ultrasound?
When I was 14 almost 15 way back in 2001, I had to have my right testicle removed due to torsion. Could you possibly do a video on testicular torsion explaining the symptoms and if a guy will still be fertile enough to make a girl pregnant with just one ball?

Who would see it ? I'm messing with you..That's crazy you had torsion so did I. I just underwent another testicular surgery and when I woke up I was all shaved. I had to show off my nuts to two Proffessor's. If you want we can talk more about it via what's app if you are comfortable with it.

Hi, Some men complain pain in their testicles while on TRT due to testicular atrophy while others don't complain any such pain despite having testicular atrophy. Why is it so? Also is the testicular atrophy on TRT always irreversible or it too depends on patients? Thanks!
Hey Abhishek, The causes of testicular pain are a tricky thing to diagnose with certainty. Being on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) has the potential to cause atrophy due to reduction in testicular androgen production and reduced sperm production. The testes can loose some of their firmness and size. Stopping TRT may enable reversal of this process if that man's body begins producing tesosterone again and it may take 6-9 months for the hormonal axis to kick back in. I hope that helps
Don’t know if this only happens to me but I am having pain in my right nut, pain comes and goes, is been probably 25 years, but some times pain is hard, I notice that when I have the pain and I have intimate time with my wife at the end, pain goes away, don’t know if that relaxes me or something but is not only one time this has happened, maybe is stress? Best of luck to everyone
You put this in a way that made me really not as terrified. Thank you.
That subtle pain can be partial torsion and it's impossible to diagnose due to blood flow on doppler

Yeah, pain that is related to hernia surgery. The docs don’t tell you about potential damage done to the vas deferrens, and testicle, primarily, because men’s health issues are often ignored, and men are just expected to just deal with it
I was having sporadic, daily burning/aching type pain in my scrotum, often when I was sitting upright in a chair or lying in bed at night. Would radiate up into my pelvic area, too. No swelling, no blood in urine or semen. Had been exercising regularly but had to stop. Thought maybe I pulled something. My regular Dr. thought it was prostatitis. Prescribed antibiotics which helped but therm After about a week of being off the antibiotics, pain reappeared. I realized I couldn't keep tolerating the pain, so I went to a urologist and he diagnosed Pelvic Floor pain. Sounds weird but he prescribed pelvic floor therapy. After about 3 sessions, pain started going away. Now, 3 months later, no pain at all. Totally got my life back.
Thanks for sharing Bruce. Great point on the worth of pelvic floor PT. Planning on a video on that soon.
Yourology101 - That would be a good topic to address. I think that this is a very common but undiagnosed problem.
Glad to hear that
Can you please tell me what did you do
@@zarnigarsheerabi2516 do you have pains too
Damn i got scared real quick thanks tho bro🙏
hey i have a question on which testicle did it hurt?
Non bacterial prostatitis is code for doctors who don't know about pelvic floor disfunction. If you are having sharp pain in your testicle it could be your hypertonic pelvic floor flaring up your pudendal nerve. If you are having pain after ejaculation or defecating and you have to urinate more often, it could be your pelvic floor. See a pelvic floor therapist who does internal therapy, you will not regret it. FYI pudendal nerve pain can be bad enough to make you pass out, it can change your life.
Excessive cycling did this to me
bro i was about to cry ahhhhhhh feel better
It is scary, guys and I am scared too. But we can do this and thrive through the pain. If the pain becomes so bad, see a doctor. Once you see a primary care provider or a urologist, first mention the pain:
-When it started,
-What symptoms you noticed: peeing patterns, spasms, what sides ache, what you did or didn't do.
Bring up if it could be these issues, and ask what tests are needed to get rid of each reason until you are certain it's not a big issue.
Here's what I would ask my doctor:
Is this prostatitis?
Could this be epididymitis?
Could this be Orchialgia?
Pelvic floor spasms?
Any tests that could help get rid of other reasons?
Could consistent masturbation like 3x a day cause this pain?
Any treatment options that aren't invasive?
They will run some tests, suggest painkillers, and if they are negative nothing is anatomically wrong. Of course, if the pain is still bad, there are other solutions like particular medications, seeing a physical therapist for pelvic floor issues, injections or procedures like nerve blocking. Don't be afraid of the future or having surgery; it will probably won't lead to something so severe. Even so, you'll be better.
Masturbating three times a day will certainly take your mind off it but it could make you sore if you are too vigorous I imagine!
Did you get through it? And how
I had a pain on my right testicle for months and it has drove me crazy. Visiting the hospitals 20 times. Getting my balls checked by multiple people. Getting multiple ultrasounds scans. Alll showed positive. Than a doctor said maybe it’s anxiety causing the pain. Once I realised that, the pain went away a few days later
How u did I have pain in right side
Ugh I’m in this boat. Healthy 33 year old guy, got checked out and dropped the pants down for the doctor and he felt the area, said I was fine with no lumps or swelling and he didn’t think there was any need for an ultrasound. It’s been almost a week now. No swelling, no lumps, no unbearable pain (knock on wood lol), just a weird sore ache. Mainly the left nut. Idk what else to do hence why I’m here on this thread 😂. And of course I’m thinking all sorts of worst case scenarios, but has anyone else ever had something similar? Dr. Said it’s not torsion or epididymys. Any input whatsoever would be greatly appreciated
@@TheMotivationMan10How did you go? I have had the same similar issue as you described and its the 2nd time now after an ultrasound and mri 6months ago. Thinking its got to do with stress at work or poor posture fr sitting down on a chair for too long.
Ive had testicular pain for 6 months. I’ve seen 4 doctors and 2 of them were urologists. I also did an uktrasound. They all said everything looked normal and they didn’t know what to tell me. I can’t believe they couldn’t tell me what you explained in this video. Now I have to suffer
Could be the nerves in the testicles man
How you feeling now
hi G C i'm sorry to hear this, how r u now though?
Same here. I have been suffering since 7 years. Went to doctors and urologist, done abdominal ultrasound, testicle, pelvic ultrasound, ct scan but nothing show up. Doctors have no answer 😟. And pain is still there, when I touch I can feel it. My testicle pain is like on and off in every 2/3 months. I’m so frustrated
I had the same issue now I'm pain free At least to one of my nuts. I'm about to have surgey to my other one. There is something that could help. I'll be glad to talk to you about it.

I thought I gonna have a left ball cancer, thank you for cleaning my fears bro.😰
I was so worried because my left testicle hurt kinda bad but it goes away don’t google the symptoms because they just freak u out
Yeah my pain went away but it is still really sensitive, so if I accidentally touch it the wrong way it"ll hurt for a couple days.
@eduar ed No ED, but it's just like if you pushed on a bruise, but without the pushing part. Ice usually helps.
@eduar ed Yeah, my pain has been here or there. Sometimes even months apart, so it's not like it's constant. But if I accidentally touch them wrong they can hurt for days in a row. Even just jumping can be enough force to make them hurt. I think I have varicocele, which is the enlargement of the veins in the scrotum.
@eduar ed That makes a lot of sense. I hope that it's just sensitive also and not something that will change my life drastically.
Does it hurt when u touch it?
Put on ice for like 10 minutes until the cratum shrinks in and testicles hold in back. This pain might be caused by testicles falling way down falling muscles and vessels down putting tension on them. By freezing the scrotum back it pulls everything back in place.. It helps a lot.

I gotta say after a year of crushing testicle pain, it is life destroying. Mine was a very small inguinal hernia with fat pushing on the nerves that ever doctor swore couldn't be causing my pain. It was. Good luck fellas. I feel for you
was it a epidymal cyst or a actual hernia?
I appreciate this video. I have been to 3 urologists in the past 2 months, all in the same group. They sure did not explain stuff like this to me. It was somewhat uncaring and feeling like an island by myself! They threw up their arms so to speak like they have no idea. I can understand that, but give us guys some comfort of putting our minds at ease. This is very bothersome.
I have had the right testicle pain for a good part of the past 3 months. They told me inflammation of the Epididymitis and did not get any antibiotics although I had penis inflammation. I have had no discharge just an ache, urin clear each time. I can walk and do pelvic floor exercises but do not feel confident in running yet. I took 8 days of Doxycillion which had some success because my primary doctor felt something had to be done. I take Ibroprophen and seems to help a bit also, but this continues.
Anyway Dr., with all this, I have had back and piriformis issues on the right side, all at the same time! In your estimation, can there be a connection with a compressed nerve somewhere causing my groin issues? I feel, treat the nerve and this pain maybe history. What is your thoughts?
hi how are you doing now? do you still have the pain or is it cured?
@@peterobrien2537 I am doing much better. I am very certain this was nerve related. Inflammation and muscle tightness in lower back and pelvis. It very slowly got better but I still stretch and occasion have aches. Still not running but do walk with no issues .

Thanks for being honest . Unfortunately most doctors have turned into fearmongering business men
Really informative. Great to know. Thanks a lot for this.
I find myself watching this video again and I’m very surprised at how dismissive he is about testicular pain, it reminds me of my dad who went to the doctor because almost every morning for two weeks, he woke up with a headache so he took Tylenol and then he was fine. The doctor told him he was fine, it was probably stress related. Two week later he had a seizure while showering and three months after that he was dead from brain cancer. Also, My mother was in the hospital with chess pain that shot into her arm, they did some test said there was nothing wrong with her and I said she was in so much pain she fell out of her hospital bed, I told the two doctors this and they said she had an anxiety attack. I told them that was no anxiety attack, they said they were going to release her the next day, I was freaking out trying to plan what to do next, well I never had the chance she was put in the ICU at 3am and she died 10 hours later. It has been my experience that when doctors have no clue about what’s wrong, they default to there is nothing wrong but never ever trust these doctors, find someone who will listen as long as you feel something is not right.
I have got it checked twice lol but nothing. The second time pain was severe and I thought I had tortion. Along with the tortion I was 90 percent sure I had testicular cancer lol. Never Google your symptoms!

hi Jacob i'm sorry you have to go through this without answers but with time i wish you full recovery, but how r u now?
Hello everyone,
I see many of us are suffering with this testicular pain. I would post my symptoms here every 2-3 days just to let some of you get an idea if your symptoms are matching mine. I know its not an ideal thing to do bcoz everyone is different, but this could provide some relief in case i would get better
Since 4-5 days now i have intermittent but mostly constant mild testicular pain that becomes moderate at night, never severe though,
urine test-negative for any blood, bacteria WBC or nitrites
Blood test-normal for all CBC and kidney Hba1c
physical exam- doc hasn't done US and thinks nothing serious going on
other symptoms i have : frequent urination on few days with 2-3 times urination at night, mild burning inside penile urethra after peeing but this is not always there, after masturbation i get this mild-moderate pain in urethra that goes away after 4-6 hours completely
Will post again after 2 days
6 day update : testicle pain is better now not constant like before, its off and on mostly at night, 200mg advil takes care of that, but now i have mild perinuem pain (THE ONLY SYMPTOM I HAVE) maybe coz i drove 8 hours yesterday who knows, rest all is good
9 days update: all symptoms gone but still scrotal discomfort that wakes me up at night to urinate once , can't get proper sleep and pain for a few seconds when i put pressure while sitting on testicle....90% cured but still struggling with a few symptoms , hang in there guys this shud get better with time
Thanks for the updates
all days update: All symptoms gone completely hoping they won't come back now cheers
Peter O'Brien I have the slight discomfort part while I’m laying in bed on my right testicle. It’s not every night just random.

Thank you for your video and I feel better knowing its normal for things like this to happen and if this goes on ill go to the doctor and see what they see, I need to say this never happen until my doctor put on water pills, two different kinds and I've had ppl ask why two? I have no idea why he put me on Furosemide 20 mg and Spironolactone 25 mg both one a day, did that have anything to do with this pain? thank you again man.
Actually, such is common with diuretics ("Water Pills") The reason why is because these medications can interfere with electrolytes and can therefore cause pain in the muscle tissue. Notably there is a significant amount of smooth muscle in the area of the testicles.
Same man
you good now? What happened?
Man6 years of dealing with pain that in the last 2 years getting so bad its not only everyday but just horrible pain...masses inside one but randomly disappeared and my urologist keeps numbing every few months 🙄 along with told it just happens, absolutely ridiculous especially when it gets so bad it interrupts sleep or work life
I came to this video, cause my right testicular was very sore for solid 4 days. I was worried thinking having cancer, and freaking out. Then after feeling them and making sure they have no lumps. The pain was getting worse and worse. I couldn’t even walk. And one of my older friends had the same experience and told me if I was wearing any tight underwear. I realised I wore my tight underwear and tight skinny jeans once for 10 hours work shift. Just 4 days ago. What Did I do was slept with no under wear while sleeping. Now the pains gone. I was freaking out a lot thinking why this pain is not going away. Try this it would help believe me.
Hey Doc, so I have had testicular pain for 8-10 months. I have been to two urologists, treated for epididymitis without success and I had a bilateral epididymectomies two months ago. I'm still in pain. Ultrasound shows small collections of fluid that are reported as "normal" after scrotal surgery. There are times I'm crying due to the pain. Right now, it is about a 5/10 and aches into my stomach on the inguinal regions bilaterally. I think the doc is running out of thoughts for this. Since I have had back surgeries years ago, I was told it might be that. I went to the back doctor and he didn't think there was anything he could do to help. Am I just at the point of living with this pain? Or do I push for microdenervation? I know you said you haven't had much luck with that. That concerns me. I don't want an orchiectomy. So many reasons I don't want that. And there's always the possibility of phantom pain that lives on. I've heard about botox in the cord. Any other thoughts?
Please give me an update! I’ve been having 4 infections back to back in the last 9 months. I’m thinking of just chopping off my left nut since it ruins a whole month to a month and of half of my life at a time. Aches and pains. It sucks.

Testicular pain may caused by havin problems in spain, back pain. It seems that you feel the pain in your testicles but you really feel is the pain radiating from around your spain.

@@robertwarren7431 dude I am laughing and because of my testicular pain, it's hurting. 😂
Bicycling accident 2002 chronic left testicular pain for a year or so.. wore an athletic support and ibruprofen. Got tired of that visited with a Urologist who suggested an epididymectomy upon examination. Had a nerve block instead of anesthesia and associated risks. The block was only partial as soon as the surgery began he hit a spot that caused me to jump off the table.(Hmm! i wonder if the knife slipped a tiny bit?) Ended up with a spinal headache which required a blood patch and another trip to the OR. Minimal results in my case. Visited with another renown urologist and a scotal US which was normal. "Why doc am I still having pain then?" where is it specifically he asks? and I pointed to the area(s) starting in the left side of the back wrapping around down into the groin. He said its the SI joint go see a chiroprator.. which I have many times and it helps short term. Also, had physical therapy and SI joint injection with cortisone which proved more diagnostic then therapeutic. Apparently then its not just the SI joint !? Temporary Spermatic cord block maybe? but I was told it could cause permanent numbness in the family jewels. Whether it was temporary (and worked) or permanent. Pudental nerve and other pathways and names I can't pronounce that apparently some type of block could be done as well. I feel as though I've been through the mill and then some and still suffer. To be honest if I had to do this over in my case I may have avoided the surgery longer suffering and annoyed by it. But, I do question what happened during that surgery and perhaps some tissue and nerve endings being damaged whether the knife slipped or not? Pathology I was told showed the epididymis was damaged/diseased from the bicycling accident(?) The trauma itself to the epididymis without any of the rest of all this might have been all it was. Did it need to be removed? Only God knows...My suggestion even at this juncture. Be patient and go the conservative path as long or as much as possible. Thats my STORY and we all one don't we and it is still being written.
God Bless all those that read this and I pray it has done some good to other kind souls out there that are suffering, fed up and still in limbo.

Hi,
8 months ago i had a varicolectomy, the cause of my grade 3 varicocele was the excessive stretching done by my trainer (knee to chest stretch) after working out. Up to now, there is still discomfort when i am sitted for a long period of time like 60 to 80 minutes, as per my second ultrasound, everything seems to be normal except for that .25 epididymal cyst versus spermatocele findings which is not (most likely) the contributor of pain according to the Urologist that i consulted with. Accdg to him tje pain could neuropathic, he prescribed lyrica, there is improvement but the pain is still there. The pain feels like a stabbing sensation and there is also this tickling sensation (which is not a discomfort) that i feel after the varicocelectomy. I would like to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you so much and god bless
Hi Luis,
The success rates of many of these procedures is fairly poor and risky. In my case I believe there was a slight slip of the scalpel (the nerve block was not done correctly) just as the surgery began likely nicking a nerve compounded with scar tissue. I read that somewhere between (10-40%) of patients experience chronic neuropathic pain from the surgery. One of the treatments for this is (SCAB) Spermatic cord anesthesia. This is used prior to denervation surgery which is quite risky but it can bring good relief if(?) your one of the fortunate ones. SCAB has been in the urological and anaesthesia literature for 40 years or more. Any urologist/anaesthesiologist worth their salt should know how to do this procedure which can take place in just a few minutes of time with the risk of bruising at the injection site and possible increased pain temporarily. They have found that a series of these injections can lower the pain level considerably preventing the need for more invasive treatment. I'm seriously looking into it at this time. Other than that its rest, NSAID's, cold packs, elevating the scrotum by placing a rolled up towel/cloth elevating the scrotum while sitting has been helpful. Sitting or *bike riding which I love is a *no no presently. This is one of those things that there is not enough money to fund research and treatments for even though it's quite pervasive for a lot of men. Dry needling, chiropractic care, physical therapy, acupuncture etc may be helpful and of coarse prayer. I hope this has done some good. WE nee to Be cautious about jumping ahead of ourselves and not allowing the body to heal. Sometimes that will involve suffering for a while longer allowing the body to heal rather than running to doctors and specialist all over the place looking for a quick fix.
Pray you find the care, compassion, expertise and relief your seeking. Cordiali Saluti, Raffaleo

Personally, I was able to release a lot of pain by stretching my inner leg. There’s a muscle called the gracilis which is very near to your scrotum. I’m not a doctor at all but I found that stretching that muscle really helped.
Please tell me which type exercise
Stretching helps me to I have pain in my right one pretty constant for along time now and I have seen two urologist about the same pain 10 years apart and got a ultrasound both times and everything came back good both times stretching in a split position helps me the most brings it from a 5 to a 1 or 0
My pain is around a 5 + daily non stop. Ultrasounds all say everything looks spectacular. Had my nerves numbed to see if they cld just clip the nerves to relieve the pain. It didn't work, so now the best thing an osu urologist can suggest is pelvic floor exercises going for pt. It's been affecting my sex life for a while now, to the point I don't even want to engage. Always in a bad mood from constant pain for the last 5 yrs.
Hi @jdww89, are you better now? I have been going through same situation as you for 10 months. Pelvic floor/kegel muscles, you’re on the right track. I had level 4/5 pain 24/7.

Back and bicep workout felt fine showered , ate them boom random pain testicle feels swollen . I can walk and all
How r u rn
Thanks for the knowledge Doc.
For me testicular pain was the first initial symptom. Later, it progressed to urinary retention. Turned out to be a perinureal cyst in the lumbar region at arround L1-L2. So this isn't necessarily true- pain is always a pathological sign by inherent definition- even if the cause of such isn't particularly significant.
What did you do after? They said I had a cyst too and just gave me antibiotics a year ago and now it’s kind of returning
What if I have pain in my right testicle and can also feel it in my stomach and the pain feels connected but it’s weird Bc they are so far apart in the body

Everything is normal, but his pain in the testicle. And I saw him cyanosis in the left of everything painful, and I went to the doctor and he told me everything is normal and you do not feel nor after that everything is painful.
About a month ago, I was at work and about 4 hrs into my shift I started getting stomach pains. I noticed my left testicle was higher than normal. I'm a cashier and, luckily, I just stand in place, not walking much walking. When I walked it would hurt. I ask to go to the restroom and I would put pressure asked the area. I would push the testicle back down to where it's supposed to be, and it felt better. Since that one time, it's been OK except for once a week. I would have an uncomfortable feeling like my pubic hair was being pulled. Could it be my underwear or do I need to see a doctor?
I’ve been having this pain for about a day on my left one and it’s heightened whenever I’m laying down this made me feel better I thought I was done for lol
Bruh same fucking shit is happening to me as I type this,anxiety fr making it worse

Hi,
8 months ago i had a varicolectomy, the cause of my grade 3 varicocele was the excessive stretching done by my trainer (knee to chest stretch) after working out. Up to now, there is still discomfort when i am sitted for a long period of time like 60 to 80 minutes, as per my second ultrasound, everything seems to be normal except for that .25 epididymal cyst versus spermatocele findings which is not (most likely) the contributor of pain according to the Urologist that i consulted with. Accdg to him tje pain could neuropathic, he prescribed lyrica, there is improvement but the pain is still there. The pain feels like a stabbing sensation and there is also this tickling sensation (which is not a discomfort) that i feel after the varicocelectomy. I would like to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you so much and god bless
How are you now? Does varicocelectomy cause pain or pain disappeared?
I have pain in my right testicle but I don’t have any bumps feels normal, It’s like aching and then it goes away
Qimd me too
Same bro
Me also

Cheers doc, needed that
I went on a 6 hour mountain bike ride, big mistake. My right ball hasn’t been the same since. Been nearly 2 months now 😕
Thanks, Doctor, I feel better already.
THX DR.
U R SO SMART...
My right nut just kinda just randomly feels slight discomfort randomly, usually when I’m laying down at night. No crazy pain or anything just a slight pain. Thanks for keeping me calm
Bro it feels same for me
Same for me but it’s my left
@@froggyfrens2517me too
Any updates? I started thinking
Its from besting my meat
To me it happens like every 6 months and it’s just that my balls get sensitive and my groin hurts then I just drink water a lot and it goes away after hours
U drinks how many glass of water a day plz reply during that time???
Thats a sign the pain isn't originating from the testicle. I'd recommend being screened for UTI and possibly for a kidney or bladder stone.
@@Harlem55 What’s a UTI
@@Kevin-ys3el UTI means Urinary Tract Infection. While Usually uncommon in men absent the use of an indwelling catheter, it is always a possible differential diagnosis with the male Genitourinary / male reproductive system.
@@Harlem55 oh have pain in the testicle before
Hi Doc .is it normal at the tail epididymi to feel like a form cirlced vein or a smaller than a marble feel..?
There’s a part of them when I touch the spot there is a pain that shoots up into like beside my belly

I have what I believe is a appendix testis. I've had an ache on my left testicle with what started as a slightly smaller than a bb, which would get hard when it would ache. It has grown into like 3 small bb's stuck together, when I massage it it hurts but feels good at the same time. I was 21 when it started I am now 45.
Hello Doc James,,,,very good important topic ,,,,onetime few years ago,,i felt pain in my organ before urinating then the FIRST FEW dropS there was blood ,,,i kept it to myself ,,did not go to doc,,,,
Now IM 58YO, IM ALSO PWD,,, now i always feel radiating pain ,,,,but urine blood did not happen again..
What it could be?thanks again Doc ,,,loving from Phils ,,Roland
I'm having pain you talked about plus problems urinating. My doc believes it's pelvic floor muscles spasms.
I havent smoked pot in over a decade. A month ago, i startded smoking pot for no reason. Iv had ball pain since i started smoking a month ago and the pain is a dull discomfort. About a 2 to a 4. Im going to stop smoking and see if the pain goes away.
Hey, for all the newer people in the comments, let’s share what kind of discomfort we’ve been having. Reply to this comment
I’ve been having super weak dull pain in my testes for 3 months, sometimes it seems to be coming from the left other times it’s the right but usually it’s both, doesn’t feel like it’s my testes though it feels like it’s the nerves cause sometimes it goes down my leg. I read an article that said dull pain is a sign of cancer it was one of those click next for the next page so they can get more money from the views. I then made an apointment and after setting it up I TH-camd it and this video made me feel a lot better, my balls themselves don’t have any irritation at all it just seems like an ache that comes out of nowhere but ends in my balls, really weird feeling. Still gunna go to the apt now tho just to feel better
Thank you so much DR....
I have Swelling under the testicle I did not know is a muscle or artery
If you have bruised it of fallen recently that’s most likely your cause of a infection
@@TheInvisibleOrange26
I have surgery in the same place
Thank you man I thought my life was in danger
I just came back from running and felt uncomfortable in that area and i wanted to know if it was abnormal and i think its just pain so thankfully its nothing to worry about
Same, when I run it doesn't hurt, when I rest its achy.
@@thegoldenmole9979 nah we aint the same its the other way 'round when i was resting it was fine but when i was running it hurt
I have pain sometimes for just 10-20min and it isn't that Painful and it rarely happens
Bro I have the same problem. Any suggestions???
Ayo bro same i have pain on my right testicle but if i just lie down or sit down for like 30 mins the pain just disappeared. Im kinda worried tho
Gotta change the fluids out occasionally
Hello doc.. I have an idea.. How about a video on Cystoscopy; I understand it is invasive, painful and an infection risk as it is pushed through the narrow urethra . Can the same results of information be obtained with an MRI or an ultrasound?
When I was 14 almost 15 way back in 2001, I had to have my right testicle removed due to torsion. Could you possibly do a video on testicular torsion explaining the symptoms and if a guy will still be fertile enough to make a girl pregnant with just one ball?
Hey man that's crazy. How are now? Is it weird having only one nut ?
@@mr-yy8sd im good now thanks. Its not really that weird considering that i've lived with one nut for longer than i lived with 2 nuts. I used to feel self conscious, now i don't really care who sees it. if people see it and ask why ive only got one, i dont feel ashamed to tell them why.
Who would see it ? I'm messing with you..That's crazy you had torsion so did I. I just underwent another testicular surgery and when I woke up I was all shaved. I had to show off my nuts to two Proffessor's. If you want we can talk more about it via what's app if you are comfortable with it.
I have an epididymal cyst on both sides waiting fir my urologist for trrameant but could be waiting g months I dontnkmow what to do fir the pain..it mainly swells on both sides at night
Sooo.... um i have a not so sore pain under my scrotum and idk if its in the scrotum or not, also it happened since high school.
And btw is it normal for 1 testis being horozontal and 1 vertical
It seems to happen in teens a lot because I’m 14 and it just comes but I think it’s because like he said our testicles put out a shit load of testosterone
I'm 15 and I get it but it happens in months and I feel it for seconds then it goes
@@Bloody_Antichrist238 same g dont worry, im also 15 and get the same. Its all puberty
@@TBE.ELLESSE my left one hurts but not the right one , is it bad or what does it mean ?
@@TBE.ELLESSE im also 15 and going through this right now
Same its like dull aching off and on ik im prob overthinking but idk
It’s my lefts ball string near my pelvic bone that feels like it’s being pinched and it feels like my left ball is being squeezed slightly and it lasts for about an hour or so it fucking sucks but I’m scared to go to the doc 😰
Same here bro
Same
U good now
@@lethalexponent6 oh yeah I’m good now. I didn’t end up going to doc I just delt with the pain and busted a few nuts now I’m feeling good
@@huvaper7378 mines been for a few hours reckon I should just leave it?
That was a great video thanks soo much
Hi,
Some men complain pain in their testicles while on TRT due to testicular atrophy while others don't complain any such pain despite having testicular atrophy. Why is it so? Also is the testicular atrophy on TRT always irreversible or it too depends on patients?
Thanks!
Hey Abhishek,
The causes of testicular pain are a tricky thing to diagnose with certainty. Being on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) has the potential to cause atrophy due to reduction in testicular androgen production and reduced sperm production. The testes can loose some of their firmness and size. Stopping TRT may enable reversal of this process if that man's body begins producing tesosterone again and it may take 6-9 months for the hormonal axis to kick back in. I hope that helps
Yourology101 Thanks for the nice explanation. Just one more question- Could TRT cause or worsen BPH?
It lasts for 2-5 mins once every other month maybe twice during that every other month. That’s totally fine (right(?))
Yes either cramps or nerves misfires that’s no issue your ok
Don’t know if this only happens to me but I am having pain in my right nut, pain comes and goes, is been probably 25 years, but some times pain is hard, I notice that when I have the pain and I have intimate time with my wife at the end, pain goes away, don’t know if that relaxes me or something but is not only one time this has happened, maybe is stress? Best of luck to everyone
