Question 1

after many erections my testicles hurt why?

Accepted Answer

Physical stress: Erections, arousal and sexual activity are accompanied by increased muscular tone and states of increased muscle and fascial tension.  It is also a time for greatly enhanced blood flow to the pelvic area.
For some men, this can cause some tenderness and sensitivity of the testicles.  It usually resolves in a matter of hours.  If not, then seek medical attention.

Question 2

left testicle hurts and my left flank hurts?

Accepted Answer

Kidney stone: Pain in the left flank and left testicle may signify kidney stone disease. This is referred pain from trying to pass a kidney stone. You need a urinalysis and possible x-rays to help diagnose. See your local urologist.

Question 3

why would my testicles hurt and my lower back ?

Accepted Answer

Pulled muscle: If a muscle injury in your low back is causing the back pain the nerve that runs through that area innervating  your scrotum could be affected as well.

Question 4

right testicle hurts and a lump seams to be growing there?

Accepted Answer

Get evaluated : By your doctor. Could be a cyst or worse. Don't delay!

Question 5

one of the muscles behind my testicle hurts from time to time?

Accepted Answer

Epididymitis: Without the benefit of a physical examination my thoughts of a possible diagnosis are epididymitis (an inflammation of the structure behind the testis), intermittent torsion (twisting of the testis), or an orchalgia (a pain in the testis).

Question 6

if i drink regular mountain dew or pepsi, my testicles hurt. why?

Accepted Answer

Can't Say.: However, regularly drinking soda has been linked to Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Diabetes, heart disease &amp; metabolic syndrome. Other possible risks include: increased weight, decreased bone mineral density (BMD) obesity, erosion of tooth enamel, mineral depletion &amp; dehydration. If it contains artificial sweeteners &amp; is used daily, this is linked to a 3 fold ^ in dementia &amp; stroke.

Question 7

what can i do if my testicle is swollen and tender, hurts! please help?

Accepted Answer

Needs 2B X'd ASAP: Sudden onset pain & swelling of testis is torsion untill proven otherwise. This is an emergency & warrants an er visit 24/7 as there is risk of testicular death after 4 - 6 hours, and certainty after 12 hours. More common at your age would be epididymitis, bacterial +/-  UTI or viral & treated with antibiotics & rest. Less common is testis tumor + hemorrhage. Scrotal ultrasound can distiguish.

Question 8

when i ejaculate my left testicle hurts in the bottom. what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Epididymitis: Epididymitis is inflammation of the epididymis, which is the tube from the testicle where the sperm travels through before you ejaculate.  It can cause pain with ejaculation, and can cause a swollen and painful scrotum. It also be due to infection, which may be caused by sexually transmitted diseases. Your physician will be able to diagnose you with this via a urine test/ultrasound.

Question 9

right testicle will sometimes hurts when i pee doesn't hurt any other time?

Accepted Answer

Any trauma?: First of all have you had any injury to the area? If not then hydrate more to see if this helps and otherwise go see your doctor for exam.

Question 10

what do you suggest if my testicles hurt when i cough hard, is this a problem?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: coughing increases pressure in the abdomen. Increasing pressure in the abdomen pushes down on the internal inguinal ring. This is where the spermatic cord leading to the testicles enters the abdomen.  if inguinal hernia is present coughing can make the hernia bulge more and cause discomfort felt in the scrotum.
