A member asked:

What is average testicular torsion pain duration?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pain from torsion: Typically pain from torsion lasts about 6 hours. Then, once the testis tissue has died, the pain goes away. It's imperative to seek immediate medical care if you have severe pain in a testicle. Time to save it is limited.
