Funiculitis or inflammation of the spermatic cord can be caused by infections, such as epididymitis or sexually transmitted infections or non infectious causes like vasculitis. Symptoms include testicular pain, swelling, and redness. Treatment typically involves antibiotics to address the underlying infection, pain relief, and rest. A healthcare provider can assist in tests and treatment
