Hello I'm 15 years old and I have recently experienced something simular to this. It feels as if I pulled something in my vas defens on my left side, it hurts slightly where it connects to my epididymitis and close to that. My vas deferen seems to be larger or swollen then the other and I get a feeling in my lower abdomen that seems as i hab got hit in the balls(very suddle though). I had this a few months ago but it went away after a week, and now it has come back. I think it might be because I was masturbating and stopped half way, whoops I guess, but I'm not 100% sure. I've been expiring this for a few days now and if It doesn't stop within a week I'm going to make a doctor's appointment. Was just wondering if anyone could tell me what it is or what I'm doing to cause it so I can stop.

Thank you- L

The symptoms you're describing—pain and swelling in the area of the vas deferens and epididymis, along with a sensation of discomfort in the lower abdomen—could be caused by a few different issues. It's important to remember that if you're ever in doubt or if the symptoms persist, worsen, or are causing you distress, you should seek medical attention. Here are some possible causes for these symptoms:

  1. Epididymitis: This is an inflammation of the epididymis, often caused by infection or trauma. It can lead to swelling and pain in the affected area.

  2. Trauma: Any kind of impact or strain during physical activity or masturbation can cause discomfort or injury to the delicate structures in the scrotum.

  3. Varicocele: This is similar to varicose veins but occurs around the vas deferens and the testicles. It can cause a feeling of heaviness and discomfort.

  4. Congestion: Sometimes, if ejaculation does not occur after prolonged sexual stimulation, the blood vessels in the area can become engorged, leading to temporary discomfort or pain.

  5. Testicular torsion: Although this condition is usually very painful and considered an emergency, mild cases might present more subtle symptoms. It occurs when the spermatic cord becomes twisted, cutting off the blood supply to the testicle.

  6. Hernia: Inguinal hernias can cause pain and discomfort in the groin area that might be confused with testicular pain.

If the pain is mild and intermittent, and you do not have any other symptoms like fever, visible redness, or severe swelling, it might be okay to monitor the situation at home for a short period. 

In the meantime, try to avoid activities that seem to trigger or worsen the pain, wear supportive underwear, and use ice packs to reduce swelling if necessary (do not apply ice directly to the skin; wrap it in a cloth or use a commercial cold pack).
