A member asked:
Other then swelling and pain what are the signs of testicular torsion and how do they know they have it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
P-A-I-N: Usually not significant swelling, just pain, and it is more than adequate to get your attention and get you in to the er for evaluation. The pain is progressive and intensifies over time. Swelling usually later sign, often after significant injury to testicle. Nausea/vomiting common due to pain intensity. May radiate up into abdomen, may have difficulty voiding. Go to er if think you are torsed.
