A little background first: last year in
august I had torsion appendix testi of the
right testical. It happened after some
heavy, awkward lifting that I was doing
while working. The pain was horrible.
I went to the emergency room. They
gave me an ultra sound. Later in the
week I went to a urologist. I was
prescribed bextra for the swelling and
told to take it easy and put ice on it.
Three weeks later it was pretty much back
to normal.
Last week I had a battle with strep
throat. I was given zithromax and
hydrocodone by my doctor. On thursday
I started getting sore in the left
testicle. On friday I was in pain.
My left testicle was swollen. I went
to a walk-in clinic and the doc didn't
seem to give a damn and just prescribed me
celebrex for the swelling (which I didn't
take). I'm taking ibuprofren and it's
helping with the swelling. I'm
supporting my testicals with a
jockstrap.
The symptoms and pain that i'm feeling
with my left testicle feel incredibly
similar to the torsion appendix testi that
I had last year on my right testicle.
I don't want to go to a urologist and get
another ultra-sound because I don't want
to pay for it and I know that all he's
going to say is take something for the
swelling and rest.
Any ideas as to how I should go about
this? Should I just wait it out on my
own?

I woke up with a pain in my left testi and
it was extremely painful half an hour
later. Went in to see my doctor straight
away an was taken to hospital straight
away. I was diagnosed with testicular
torsion and I was operated on about an
hour or so later. Thankfully they got
there in time and no damage was done. If
u hav any pain like this then u hav to go
to the doctor. I was in agony. Dont
leave or it may be too late.

Guys I want to ask:
My testicles are small, and on top, they
hurt. When I shower them, go on bumpy
roads on a motor bike, they hurt so much!
I cannot believe it, whislt my cousin's
are fine when on the motor bike.
Now my testicles are under half the size,
I had a hernia operation and an
orchidopexy on the right testicle as a
baby...
Now I know this is a common operational
procedure. So was the doctor CARELESS who
did this to me?
Does it also effect orgasm volume?
The doctor has ruined my dam life, I have
small testicles and they hurt. My
confindence is gone out of the window! So
I never mix and talk with girls.
Now I need answers, was the doctor
CARELESS!!!!!!

Because the doctors who I have seen for my
problem, say IT IS UNLIKELY THAT IT WAS
FROM THE OPERATION.
Now I know for a fact, I have had no other
injuries, so now I am wondering, the only
answer is that the doctor was a stupid
careless fool, who ruined a lot of a my
life....
I have other problems too, ED...
But having the testicles small and
continuously hurt, it gives me a weird
sick feeling, and makes me feel so
unmanly! So this doctor was careless...
Was this NOT suppose to happen from such a
simple procedure?
