Testicle Twists Around Spermatic Cord. Posted: 02-04-06 09:40am
I'm 17 years old and have noticed that
since a year ago, my testicles have been
able to twist and rotate, so that the
spermatic cord is infront (mostly the
right testicle).
It is not painful at all, and I can't say
that it causes me much discomfort beyond
an uncomfortable "tickle" in my abdomen
area above the right testicle. When one
of them twists, I always turn it back to
it's normal state with the cord behind the
testis. I understand the risk of torsion
is increased, though I don't know by how
much. Should I go to a doctor as soon as
possible? Or have I little to worry
about?
