Patient's question:
Recently, my testicles have been hurting, and I haven't been engaging in any intense exercise. Sometimes, even when I think of very explicit images, they become hard. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Pain in the testicles, if there is a clear history of trauma, should be taken to the hospital immediately for a thorough examination. The first step is to rule out testicular rupture. If there is no clear history of trauma, and recurrent testicular swelling and pain occur, the most common cause is inflammation of the testicular epididymis. Additionally, many conditions, such as hydrocele or varicocele, can also cause pain in the scrotal area, requiring further examination and treatment in the urology department of the hospital.
