A couple of days ago I got hit in the groin during soccer practice. I went to the ER and they checked it out for 4 hours and said its only a bruised and swollen testicle due to a compact hit. They said I would be fine in about 1-2 weeks on a prescribed pain killer and icing it twice a day. It has been five days and the bruise is slightly gone, but I realize that the swollen left testicle swollen part went down. But now their seems to be a lump on the side of my left testicle and I don't know if I should go back to the doctor or if it is just a phase in healing of the bruise? Please if anybody knows reply! And by the way it only hurts when I don't take the medication and walk; and it is not even that bad of a pain anymore compared to last time.
