Aching pain in left testicle.

I’ve been having an aching pain in my left testicle the past few weeks. I’ve noticed that the seminal vesicle is more pronounced and in a different position. Like it shifted from where it usually is. Can that be causing the pain? How do I make it better. I’ve had something similar before and the doctor told me to rest. I don’t think he understood what I was really saying. It took months to get better and I don’t want to wait that long this time.

Testicular pain can be very serious or just minor. Its always good to get checked to rule out anything really scary and dangerous.

That said, if its not serious, hot baths can be helpful. Also if its just blood vessel congestion like in blue balls, try doing a ton of body wt squats until your legs get pumped. This will open the deeper vessels and relieve a “blue ball” like condition.

I would try the hot soaks first and see if it helps.

I just returned from an ultrasound for that exact same pain. The doctor told me it could just be epididymitis, he has not seen the results of the ultrasound and I will post them when I get them, but all he told me was to relax, take 6 advils a day, and stay away from excess stress (which he was referring to working out, because I told him I just started going to the gym again).

Don’t know if this helps, but my pain started to go away with the advils, and hot-wraps. The only thing was when I thought it was all gone, I tried to do the linear routine (after three weeks off) and it seemed to make the same pain return.

Keep me posted on your situation bro!

Does it feel like maybe it’s twisted? Sometimes my right nut gets twisted and I have to untwist it. It can cause quite a bit of pain.

Is it swollen at all?

When I was a kid one of my nuts twisted around. I couldn’t even walk (it was due to riding a bicycle), and it without a doubt swelled to the size of my current testicle or bigger (I was 9 or 10 at the time). I’ll never forget when the doctor squoze (sp?) it saying, “Does this hurt?”.. Bastard.. I was screaming.

Go to the doctor for sure. It’s your ball man. I also have a node on one of my testicles from a hit I took at 16. I have a doctor feel for it every physical I get, but so far none of them can find it. I should see a specialist as well.

Same here, only difference, I had to undergo surgery immediately. My balls were ‘locked’ to prevent from re-twisting. One hangs low and one hangs high due to this :(

If the OP has testicular torsion by now it would be too late to safe his testicle I’m afraid.

I once had pain in my left testicle for a few days. It was something that I never experienced before and I was worried. Turns out I just had to cum and had a ton of sexual buildup with no release. It usually took two ejaculations at a time to clear it up. I would cum once and the pain would go down a bit, then I came again and the pain was pretty much gone. Haven’t had a problem since. Not sure if this is the case with thecrow19 or not but its a possibility.

I checked out epididymitis and that’s what it sounds like. I went to the doctor because of the flu and also told him that I thought I had a bacterial infection down there. I told him about the inflammed epididymis. As soon as I showed him my balls he saw an ingrown hair and said that’s what was causing the pain. He didn’t even check out my balls or around it. I told him that I didn’t think that’s what was causing it and said that I was feeling pain before the ingrown hair. It definitely wasn’t what was causing it. He told me that he thought that’s what it was and cut me off. I asked if the antibiotics that I’m now taking for the flu will also take care if it was epididymitis. He said yes. So is that true?

Also, on the topic of bacterial infections. I found that I’ve had a lot the past few years which I thought was uncommon for men. I don’t produce precum(or at least not noticeable) and was told that precum is important for killing any bacteria. I could be way off on that but though I read it somewhere. Anyway, if it is true is there any way to start producing more?

I took advil for about a week (6 a day) and it helped alot. Actually it made the pain completely go away. The only thing is when I started jelqing again, the pain started to come back again, but not as bad. I’m gonna take it easy and do less jelqs. When i first started i was at 150 jelqs (week one) and week two I was at 300. I guess that might be why it triggered the pain. Right now i’m doing the linear newbie routine, and am only doing 50 jelqs with 10 minutes of stretching (warm up and down ofcourse). I was doing 5 days on 2 days off, but now will be doing 2 on and 1 off, maybe even 1 on and 1 off.

The only thing is I still feel a weird little pain behind the left testicle, or somewhere very close to that area. Could I be hitting something when i’m jelqing?

Also is it bad to jelq at 20% erection?

Also I was just reading up on testicular torsion, and it says that it has very similar symptoms to epididymitis. Testicular torsion sounds very serious. How can you differentiate? I have not gotten back the results from the ultrasound, but I will be sure to post when I do.

I to have had pain but only on the left side of the penis. I took a break & the pain went away surprise & started a new program with less pressure & # of Jelq.

Wow, my left testicle.. Where do I start?? :p

I’ve had a series of issues with my left testicle but I’ll focus on the latest event which sounds similar what you’re going through. The doctor actually gave me antibiotics and told me to rest. It worked.

From what I’ve read about testicular torsion I’m pretty sure your ball would be dead right now. And sounds really painful. It says that after 24 hours the chances of saving the ball is basically 0%. I highly doubt you have that if you’ve been experiencing pain for a while and it got better with advil. I’m on antibiotics right now and it seems noticeably better after just 2 days.

Yeah, same here. It seems to be getting better. Knock on wood.
