The pain sensation may range from a dull ache to sharp, persistent pain. Many men experience occasional pain in the testis that is mild and goes away on its own.<\/p>\n<p>When the pain is more severe or persists, many men seek help.<\/p>\n<p>Testicles are very delicate organs and have an important role in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/low-testosterone\/\">producing testosterone<\/a> as well as in sperm production. The testis has a good nerve supply, and even mild trauma or disease can cause immense pain and discomfort.<\/p>\n<p>The most important cause of testicular pain is <strong>trauma<\/strong>. It can be of any form. For example, when something strikes the testicles, or it can be due to involuntary compression during sleep or excessive physical activity. In cases of mild trauma, there is a feeling of dull ache and heaviness in the scrotal sac. But in severe cases, the pain can be excruciating.&nbsp; Blunt injury to the testis can lead to testicular rupture, hematoma, and a need for emergency surgery to repair the testis.<\/p>\n<p>Another important cause is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-torsion\/\"><strong>torsion of the testis<\/strong><\/a>. Normal testicles are suspended from the body and cannot rotate. In torsion of the testis, there is usually an <strong>abnormal rotation of the testicle<\/strong>. The pain is usually <strong>excruciating<\/strong> and is felt in the scrotal sac. It is a <strong>medical emergency<\/strong> and has to be addressed in a hospital&#8217;s emergency department to prevent permanent damage to the testicles. This condition is more common between the ages of 10 \u2013 25 years but can occur at any age. Nausea and vomiting may accompany the pain.<\/p>\n<p>Testicular discomfort can also occur when the testis is pulled up in the scrotum or high up into the groin by cremasteric muscles that wrap around the spermatic cord. This condition is called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-problems\/retractile-testes\/\">&#8220;retractile testis&#8221;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Most Common Causes of Testicular Pain include:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Trauma (Can be obvious or subtle such as from pressure)<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-torsion\/\">Testicular torsion<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Spermatocele<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-problems\/retractile-testes\/\">Retractile testis<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-problems\/orchitis\/\">Orchitis<\/a> <\/strong>&amp; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-problems\/epididymitis\/\">epididymitis<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;which is basically the inflammation of the testicles due to infection or any other condition. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/std\/\">STDs<\/a> such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/std\/gonorrhea\/\">gonorrhea<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/std\/chlamydia\/\">chlamydia<\/a> are common causes of orchitis in men.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/hydrocele\/\">Hydrocele<\/a><\/strong>, which is the accumulation of fluid inside the scrotal sac<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/varicocele\/\">Varicoceles<\/a> <\/strong>are tortuous enlarged veins of the testicles.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hematoma<\/strong>, which is an accumulation of blood in the scrotal sac, usually a result of trauma.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inguinal hernia<\/strong>, which is the protrusion of abdominal contents, mainly the intestines, into the scrotal sac<\/li>\n<li>Referred pain from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/kidney-stones\/\">kidney stones<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/pain\/\">pelvic pain<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Post-vasectomy pain syndrome<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gangrene<\/strong> is basically the death of testicular tissue as a result of untreated torsion or trauma.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Diabetic neuropathy<\/strong> affecting the nerve supply of the testicles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-cancer\/\">Testicular cancer<\/a> can occasionally cause pain.

The pain can be minimal or excruciating. <strong>Significant pain is often an indication of serious injury<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-problems\/orchitis\/\"><b>Orchitis<\/b> <\/a>is an inflammation of the testes; <b>epididymo-orchitis<\/b> refers to inflammation of the testis and epididymis. Acute inflammation can be extremely painful as it causes stretching of tunica albuginea. Orchitis may be caused by viral or bacterial infections. Sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea and chlamydia infection can cause testicular pain. Other symptoms may include blood in the ejaculate and urine and enlarged groin nodes that are also painful. Chronic inflammation of epididymis may be caused by a low-grade bacterial infection (chlamydia), tuberculosis, filariasis, drug-induced by amiodarone, obstruction after vasectomy, and Behcet\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-torsion\/\">Testicular torsion<\/a><\/b> is a urological emergency caused by torsion of the spermatic cord. This results in loss of blood supply to the testis. The severity of testicular ischemia depends on the degree of torsion and causes ischemic orchitis, which is responsible for severe pain. It is most often seen in children and but may also occur in young adults and older men. This is an emergency situation and requires immediate management to prevent permanent ischemic damage to the affected testis. <strong>Intermittent testicular torsion<\/strong> is known to occur. It produces less severe pain, which disappears after a short time when the testis untwists spontaneously.&nbsp; Intermittent testicular torsion may be an early precursor to testicular torsion.<\/p>\n<p><b>Torsion of testicular appendage<\/b> resembles the pain of testicular torsion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/varicocele\/\"><b>Varicocele<\/b> <\/a>is the dilatation of veins that carry blood from the testes. It appears like a bag of worms just above the testes.

It occurs due to inflammation, tumors, trauma, or its cause may be unknown. The secondary hydrocele may subside spontaneously once the inflammation subsides. If there is an accumulation of blood, it takes longer to resolve.<\/p>\n<p><b>Spermatocele<\/b> is a cyst originating from the epididymis, which is filled with sperms. Larger spermatoceles may cause discomfort though usually there is no pain.<\/p>\n<p><b>Pain syndromes such as <\/b>testicular pain syndrome, epididymal pain syndrome, and post-vasectomy pain syndrome present with.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Testicular Anatomy and Innervation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Testes<\/strong> are a pair of male reproductive organs located in the scrotum. Each testis is 4 to 5 cm long and about 3 cm wide and deep.&nbsp; The <strong>epididymis<\/strong> is a long worm-like structure located just behind each testis. Sperm cells are produced in the testes and are stored in the epididymis, where they also undergo maturation. During ejaculation, the sperm cells, along with the secretion of seminal vesicles, are ejected through the urethra. Testes also produce a hormone called testosterone.<\/p>\n<p>Each testis is supplied with blood through the testicular artery and drains through the plexus of veins.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/appointments\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-697 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/urology_booknow.png\" alt=\"Book Appointment\" width=\"204\" height=\"190\"><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If you have any questions, to&nbsp;<a title=\"Appointments\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/appointments\/\">schedule a consultation<\/a>, please<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/appointments\/contactus\/\">&nbsp;<\/a><a title=\"Contact Us \u2013 New York Urology Specialists \u2013 Phone, Email, Fax, Text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/contactus\/\">contact us<\/a> or call\/text: <a href=\"tel:12122046300\"><span class=\"style2 redish number\">1-212-204-6300<\/span><\/a><\/strong><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"style2 redish\">We have <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/about\/patient-testimonials\/\">excellent reviews from patients <\/a><\/strong>and their partners.&nbsp; Information for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/visitors\/\">out-of-state and international patients<\/a>.&nbsp; Find out our <a title=\"Address and Directions to Office \u2013 New York Urology Specialists\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/appointments\/directions\/\">office hours or directions to our office<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"style2 redish\"><strong>We offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/appointments\/financial-information\/\">affordable appointment prices<\/a> with or without insurance.&nbsp; <\/strong><\/span><span class=\"style2 redish\">Same-day <strong>virtual video appointments<\/strong> and <strong>in-person appointments<\/strong> are available.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Did you know?<\/strong><\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/about\/dr-alex-shteynshlyuger\/\">Dr. Shteynshlyuger<\/a> <\/strong>has performed <strong>over 1,000 penile, scrotal, testicular, kidney, bladder, and prostate surgeries,<\/strong> including testicular implants, hydrocelectomy, varicocelectomy, scrotoplasty, circumcisions, circumcision revisions, frenuloplasty, penile implants, Urolift, prostate enucleation, correction of Peyronie&#8217;s disease, and congenital penile curvature.&nbsp; He performs 150-200 penile surgeries a year.<\/p>\n<h2>Where to Get Treatment for Pain in the Testis in NYC?<\/h2>\n<p>At New York Urology Specialists, we offer <strong>treatment for testicular pain<\/strong>.&nbsp; Same-day <strong>virtual video appointments<\/strong> and <strong>in-person<\/strong> appointments are available.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Call\/text today: <a href=\"tel:12122046300\"><span class=\"style2 redish number\">1-212-204-6300<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">or&nbsp;<\/span><a title=\"Appointments\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/appointments\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">make an appointment<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<span style=\"color: #000000;\">online.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We perform <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/testicular-implants\/\">testicular implants<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/scrotum\/\">scrotal surgery<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/penis\/\">penile procedures<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/varicocele\/varicocelectomy\/\">varicocele<\/a> <\/strong>and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkurologyspecialists.com\/mens-health\/hydrocele\/\">hydrocele repair<\/a><\/strong>, and <strong><a href=\"\/circumcision?page_id=120\">cosmetic circumcision.<\/a> &nbsp;<\/strong>We offer treatment for phimosis, balanitis, missing testis, low testosterone, penile irritation, and redness.
