Q: Is This Testicular Torsion?

Hi and im 16 years old. The other day I was at the bowling alley with my girlfriend(we were outside her brother is in a league).
We go everytuesday. So i layed down and she grabbed my penis and started giving me a handjob. She stopped cause people were coming outside. SO me and her startd making out and dry humping(we were behind the bowling alley standing up), and i felt an intense pain in my left testicle.SO she aske dme if i was ok and isaid yes so we kept going. When i got home there seemed to be like a sack on the tube connected to my teste near the testicle, it hurt very much, so i went home and masturbated and it seemed the pain went away that night.( i had experienced this ones before and the doctor said it could have been testicular torsion) it feels like my testicle is awkwardly positioned when i feel it, but it is not tender or inflamed but the tubes feel wierd. Any guesses on what this could be?
THanks just looking for some help

That Sounds Serious

The health of your penis is far more important than whatever time/money you may use to see the doctor. Go see the doctor, acute testicular pain is symptom of potentially serious reproductive health issues (whether it is a testicular torsion or not).

Hi joeln and welcome to the forum!!

I agree with MMAFighter- you should go to the doc. Since you're young it might be awkward to get your parents to bring you, but remember you don't have to reveal anything you don't want to, just tell them you need to be seen and the doctor won't tell them anything either (so you can be 100% honest with the doc).

Good luck

Could Still Be Damaged

I do fighting as a sport (don't take me as an aggressive pitbull, I just love the competition and I use my skills to help society in many ways). Anyways, once I overtrained my shin and even though the swelling disappeared and pain from applying pressure to the area, my shin was still visibly weaker than before when I tried kicking the heavy bag. I think you should see the doctor.

Testicular torsion is extremely painful and would require emergency room care. However, I'm not a doctor and don't about them twisting minimally and then untwisting on their own.

Varicocele, which is a varicose vein of the testicle, can make the "tubes" feel weird, soft, or like a bag of worms as some have described it.

Either way, if the pain comes back get it checked.

Torsion

I HAVE HAD TESTICLE TORSION..it hurt a lot but the testicle goes back to normal, i have gone to see a doctor about it today and he says it is testicle torsion.. if it appeared to be a bit higher up then usualy during the pain, and if it made u feel sick or faint then it probaly is torsion. and also if it felt in an awkurd position or the wrong way round .... you need to see a doctor because if it happens tand it dosn't go back. it can cut off the blood supply to ur testicle for to long and it will die . the longer it is twisted..the longer there is no blood going to it. my doctor reffered me to a urologist..... GO SEE A DOCTOR

Did you go see the doc? You really should. You don't have to tell your parents it has anything to do with sexual activity, just tell them you are having pain.
