Hello. I'm 22 year old male and I'm pretty scared right now and I need some quick information.
Just the other day I woke up and my testicles were killing me. They were very sore and I could barely touch it with my hand, although there was no visible symptoms.
I really don’t know what could be the cause. I've heard that this condition is called orchialgia.
Anyway, I'm sexually active for already five years and during this period, I haven’t experienced anything similar!
Hello. I will tell you more about it because I've experienced almost the same thing. You were right- orchialgia is a medical term for every pain localized in testicles.
There are many possible causes of all this and I will name you only the most common.
In most cases, cause is injury, infection or inflammation or testicular torsion. Also epididymitis or orchitis could be the cause.
My point is, what ever is the cause, it is very unlikely that it will all pass by it self.
You need to contact your GP to determine the right causes and to receive some medication for it.
