A member asked:
I have a slight pain in my testicale, the pain is not constant however (it comes & go) it has lasted almost a week. could this be an infection?

Yes see your doctor: Epididymitis causes painful swelling as does some STD. So get checked out to catch it early. Younger men should be checked for testicular tumors and torsion ( a twisting of testes).
