A member asked:
After about 3 days of my left testicle on and off lightly aching, it has calmed down. what does this mean? does it mean my testicle has died?

No: Very unlikely you have had any permanent damage to your testes and much more likely that you had a mild orchitis or epididymitis ( the tube that "collects" the sperm) form unrecognized trauma. Hope this is helpful Dr Z

Testicle ache: Please see your doctor. Likely all is well but you need to be sure. Could have been an infection or strain. Your doc will let you know. Peace and good health.
