Patient's question:
When I was playing soccer at school, my testicles were hit by the ball a few times. It hurt for a moment and then went away. Recently, it has started to hurt again. I want to ask how to deal with it if the testicles are hit once.Doctor's answer:
Your testicles, being a sealed organ covered with sensory nerve endings and with a non-elastic tunica albuginea, are prone to trauma and resulting pain. The pain is quite severe, almost unbearable. However, in most cases, if there is no testicular injury, the pain will subside and will not lead to further pain. If the pain returns after a few days, it is recommended to visit a urologist for a thorough examination to prevent potential testicular damage. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
