Question 1

my boyfriend has a sore testical what could be causing it?

Accepted Answer

Many things: Sore testicles can be from infection (std or non std), trauma, varicose veins around the testis, unknown cause
testicular tumors clasically present at painless lumps but can sometimes present with pain.
He should see a doctor if his pain persists or if he has any lumps or bumps in his testis.

Question 2

my right testical is a lil sore and i have sharp cramping pains where my kidneys  are what could cause this?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor.: This could be a urinary tract infection which would necessitate antibiotics.

Question 3

if you have epididymitis from an std could the only symptom be a sore testicle from time to time? or would you have discharge etc. also under a lot of stress could anxiety and stress cause testicle pain here and there? i also have two ingenial hernia?

Accepted Answer

: Epididymitis due to STD is an acute infection that responds to antibiotics -- never chronic with recurrent or on-and-off symptoms. And it usually does not cause only a sore or tender testicle; almost always the testicle is enlarged and hardened, with tenderness to touch. Testing always shows gonorrhea or chlamydia. It sounds unlikely you have epididymitis; or if you due, not caused by an STD.

Question 4

can an ingenial hernia cause testicle pain at times? testicle isnt sore to the touch but hurts at times sudden movements or getting up?

Accepted Answer

: An inguinal hernia enters the space where the blood supply (artery/vein) for the testis is present. The hernia can compress these vessels and this might be responsible for episodic pain. It would be one of many reasons to get it fixed while you feel healthy. Hernias can get trapped while down and end up needing an emergency fix when you may not be prepared for the best outcome.

Question 5

can a penile chordee cause cremaster muscle or testicle area soreness? i have a slight side chordee & during/after erections pain & soreness on perennial area develops on same side of chordee. urolgst checked & said testicle normal & not from testcl?

Accepted Answer

: Perineal pain is not caused by chordee or cremasteric muscle. Pl see your MD or gen surgeon for cause. Good luck

Question 6

can tight bladder neck cause right testicle pain? been so sore

Accepted Answer

Yes indeed: Internal pelvic pain, originating in the bladder, prostate, etc is a kind of &quot;visceral&quot; pain -- the same kind that occurs with intestinal or other problems inside the abdomen. Such pain is always quite diffuse and can be perceived in places quite far from the origin. Also, pain can radiate to areas served by the same nerves. Prostate or bladder pain often radiates to the testicles.

Question 7

after 5 days of not releasing sperm, my left testicle is sore and i also have soreness in my bladder/pelvis area. i've been dealing with ed for about 4 years, what is the likelihood that my ed is caused by pelvic floor tightness?

Accepted Answer

: I'm not aware of that as a cause of erectile dysfunction. Congestion and swelling can build up in the testicles and prostate gland after a period of no ejaculations. I recommend going to a men's sexual health clinic for evaluation and advice.

Question 8

can infection in the epididymitis or elsewhere in the groin cause scrotal sac/testicle pain and soreness but not be detected by ultrasound or urinalysis? have had my urine tested with an us, both of which were negative for infection?

Accepted Answer

: Ultrasound is not a test for infection. It can rule out swelling and tumors etc. Pl try wearing a good support underwear you will feel a lot better. If not pl see a Urologist.

Question 9

me and my boyfriend had sex yesterday and now today his right testical is swollen and tender at touch. what could be wrong? and what should he do?

Accepted Answer

Swollen Testicle: This very well may depend on the age of your boyfriend. But, it very easily could just be an irritated scar tissue in the tubing that goes from the testicle to the prostate gland. This is a spermatocele or a varicocele.  It could also be an infection in the epididymis.

Question 10

the bottom tip of my right testicle is tender when touched. why? is it a cause for concern?

Accepted Answer

See urologist: This could be an epididymitis ( infection) which is treated with antibiotics or just testalgia which isn't an infection and even sometimes a hernia will have referred pain to the testicle . You need to see a urologist to be examined to determine exactly what is the cause of your symptoms
