Before, my testicles were injured by external force, and it was very painful. What should I do?

Patient's question:

Previously, my testicles were subjected to external force, and it was very painful. There was no swelling, and it didn't hurt when touched. However, there was a dull ache for about a week afterward. The doctor instructed me to lift my testicles and apply cold compresses while carefully observing. After a few days, the dull ache should completely disappear.
Hello, could this type of injury lead to conditions like testicular tumors? Do I need to visit the doctor again?

Doctor's answer:

I am very willing to assist you in resolving this issue. If the pain persists, it is recommended to seek medical attention. Generally, pain caused by trauma is not a major concern, so there is no need to worry excessively—it is highly unlikely to develop into a tumor. I hope my explanation is helpful to you. Testicular pain can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and there is a higher risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used appropriately based on symptoms. Additionally, it is advisable to maintain a healthy lifestyle during the treatment period.
