My scrotum starts to hurt really badly at times, why is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Testicular pain: could be different causes. Most testicular pain is physiologic and self limited. however, acute testicular pain can be a sign of serious pathologies like torsion, acute infection ( orchitis), or hernia. If pain is acute and lasts for more than one hour and/or is associated with fever, nausea, vomiting, or swelling of the testis you should go to the closest emergency department.

A member asked:
I seems that every time I have a physical exam, my testicles pull up tight in my scrotum so the doctor cannot really examine them well. They usually hang down low at other times. Does anxiety cause the scrotum to contract and pull the testicles up?
