A member asked:
I have been experiencing pain and soreness in my right testicle. i have also found a hard area on the outer sac of my right testicle. is this common?

Consult doctor: This isn't common but the severity of it depends on your age, med hx, etc. Consult your general doctor or urologist as soon as possible. The hard area on the scrotal sac may have nothing to do with the pain or may be an infection. Testicular pain can lead to permanent damage of the testicle.

No: Occasional pain in the scrotum that doesn't last is usually not concerning. The lump may be ok too but you need to see a doctor for an exam and maybe a scrotal ultrasound.

Hi whenever I wear tight pants or boxers my left testicle is against the bottom of my pants and sometimes it gets firm and rarely sore but if I sleep in loose clothing it goes away. No lumps or anything. Some people say it's achy ball syndrome. Any ideas?
