Testicle Ache ...
Posted: 05-18-05 12:47pm

I'm an 18 year old male and over the last week I have been experiencing a dull ache in my left testicle. It doesn't hurt a lot and over the last few days it has died off just a little. However, I have started to have stomach aches and my lower abdomen is starting to ache now and again.


I have a doctors appointment in the morning, but I would just like to know of anyones views on this type of thing and whether anyone has had anything similar happen to them in the past and what the outcome was.


Hope to get some useful replies! I am worried about it, as you would expect!

I had and continue to have the same problem.

My doctor sent me for an ultrasound, twice, but nothing was detected at all. I was put on antibiotics called cipro for about 1 month.

It still has small discomfort.

Who knows!

Well my problem seems to be easing off now. It is entirly possible its a weaker form of the mumps or some other virus. But if it doesn't clear up soon i'll be visiting doctor.

It is very possible that you have epididumitus (sp) which is an infection of the epididimus and it hurts like you explained. It is a dull ache that really doesnt stop for days.

You also could be experiencing a varicocele (sp) which is the same thing as a varicose vein in the leg but in your scrotum instead. The vein swells up and grows too long and causes constant pressure to build and squeeze the testicle. In 1991 I had a varicocele ligation while in the navy and then as a post effect I got chronic epididimitus which flares up several times a year.

The infection can be easily treated with tequin or e-mycin or penicilin. If that fixes the pain then you should be good to go. If not they may order an ultrasound to see if you have a varicocele or some other problem on the testicle.

You really need to be seen by a uroligist asap and get this taken care of. You can never be to safe when it comes to the jewels! :lol:
