My husband is 30 years old and we have
three children. He has never had any
problems and has had a physical in the
past month. The other day he got up from
sitting in the car and he got a horrible
pain from his testicle into his lower
stomach and noticed that his right
testicle had gone back up. You can still
see it, but you can also tell it's gone up
and doesn't hang like the other one. That
was 2 days ago and it still has not
dropped again. What is this? What
happened?

His testicle has ascended into his body.
Not only is it uncomfortable, but
testicles have to be a few degrees cooler
than body temperature to produce healthy
sperm (if any at all).
It's also not good to have a testicle
inside your body, period... not only
because of the pain, but because it can
damage it.
I'd go to a doctor to get it properly
descended.

Thanks. I'll make an appointment for him.
Do you know what causes this?

There are little pockets on either side of
the shaft of the penis inside the body.
They can get jammed up there if the right
muscles relax and tense at the same,
unfortunate time. There may be other
causes, but, alas, I'm not an expert.
