Torsion: I think what you are referring to is testicular torsion. Yes if it is testicular torsion you will have extreme pain. You should definitely go and see your physician.

Need to see a doctor: Acute testicular pain and swelling is an emergency especially in children, teenagers, and young adults because of the possibility of testicular torsion which requires immediate surgery if the testicle is to be saved. Untreated torsion after 12-24 hours generally leads to a non-viable testicle. Infection and testicular cancer are other considerations and you should see a doctor asap.
