uneven testicles, the effect of epididymitis?

I have this same problem. No one has answered it before for me. Could it be a result of the enlargement from epididyimis (epidyimitis) that is slightly pushing it farther forward and you just have to wait for it to heal? I have no clue but very uncomfortable.

Update: back again i took the herbal medicine for over two months .. Aweek ago stopped it due to concern on my health most ppl around sayd i shouldnt continue that long .. The pain when im on herbal medicine is completely gone nothing i felt at all .. Did masturbate twice a day then went to do ultrasound to check .. The ultra sound kind of a bit shocking to me cause for first time the doctor asked me to stand up then he asked if i had surgery or something for varicocele ?!! I thought it was good news at that time .. Hopefully its .. The ultrasound came negative for varicocele on right testicle and positive on left testicle with measurment of 2.1 mm (while standing up &valsava maneuver) compared to 2.05 more than a month ago while laying down ..so i guess im improving .. Note that i stopped masturbating untill the day of ultrasound test i did it twice just to compare it with once before .. I stopped the herbal medicine cause it showed callcification of left kideny which i have no idea what it is ( two month ago left testicle showed calcification !! Werid the same side ?).. Also a 4 mm kidney stone which i believe it was there months ago nothing new ... I wanted to continue on that herbal medicine cause the elderly woman said dont stop untill im cured .. But i had to stop cause everyone i know was saying i should get off it then come back ... There was no pain what so ever while i was on herbal medicine noticed also darker skin, deeper strong voice change .. I have no idea if it from the medicine or something else .. Also i have to mention crazy sexual desire last time posted an update lasted for 3 weeks i guess.. I came off herbal medicine a week ago .. After a day pain of right thigh came while im sleeping .. Its the line that attached from the thigh to the abs pain radiate to 20% of the adducter muscle then muscles attaches the peins pain .. Pubic region and two vertical lines that lies alined with testicles but in the abdominal (pubic) region .. This pain comes and goes usually comes when i walk long distances starts to hurt .. Or sometimes with doing anything buy sitting down uncomfortable ache ... I thought it was a muscle injury specially remembering when i was taken antibiotics first week of testicle pain i went gym and trained legs speciall adducters took them high weight but didnt notice pain at all at that time but testicle started to descend the day after .. The right testicle which is weird caude ultra sound shows no varicocele there and left testicle which has varicoclee veins is pulled higher !! ..since that time 6 months ago i noticed change in my way of standing .. The right foot never seem to be alined with left foot its the left always inches forward than left i didnt thought it was a big deal but the left is kind of catching up now .. The difference now is decreasing almost half an inch ..
Most of the pain is gone thank god .. But still i have pain from time to time and discomfort in right thigh abs line like a vertical line still hurting .. Im thinking its a muscle since i did ultra sound four months ago with a veins doctors which i though at that time it was blood clot maybe .. Searching for blood clots in right thigh the doc told me there was nothing .. But noticed that there is inflammation on upper high thigh of mine and advice to take inflamatory pills which i refuse cause of my liver enzymes were high at that time .. He insisted that if i didnt break the inflammation cycle with antiinflammatory pill at least 7 days it will continue ..

Now .. My right testicle is hanging way low specially when its hot or touches water .. Left hangs high .. I noticed left sometimes goes down as low as right which it didnt before .. Im doing commando all the time .. Sleeping naked noticed they get cold at night when i touch them .. I never thought they get that cold before but i never noticed i guess .. Im going to check with an orthadist (bone muscles) doctor to clear that area from any injury .. Another veins doctor to check vertical lines pain in my pubic which i think they are testi supplying veins ..
I will do whole package blood tests to check evedything before going back to herbal medicine again ..
I discovered a life without masturbation .. I pray not to have varicocele or any other issues in that region and hopefully i go back to what i was god is generous ..
I will inform u with the latest

Hi I have the same problem .How are you feeling now is your testicle back to normal again?Or did you take any medication. I need your help in this since you had this a year ago.

Thnx for your detailed writing. Regarding number 2, you are right I’ve been very unhappy obsessing if it was torsion. I got checked it up by a regural md whose are wasn’t urology and she said I wouldn’t resist if it was torsion. Interestingly perhaps my testicle always stood front but I didn’t realize it. It all started two weeks ago with a mild pain/discomfort and I didn’t wanna go to urologist due to covid19 cases here.
My theories why they stand like that is,

1) Everybody has one testicle stays lower or higher. When one goes down, as the other testicle finds space and gets bigger. Then it goes farther front to stay comfortable.
2) Testicles protect themselves from that sorta infections. So they tend to go higher up in case there is an infection in epydidimitis. I am not sure they can be treated by antibiotics btw. What happens to acne when you finish your antibiotics? They come back. And what were guys doing in macedonia during bronze age or middle ages whatever? Did they use antibiotics?

So I guess we should trust our bodies and not give a sh*t in case pain is bearable.

I have this same issue. Went to sleep about 3 weeks ago, turned over and felt a sharp pain in my testicles, thought nothing of it as it went away instantly. The next day my left testicle started to gradually ache. It was as if it was being flicked by an invisible hand intermittently throughout the day. Then my right testicle started to ache the same way. This went on for about 3/4 days. On the 4th day I noticed my right testicle looked further forward than normal and hanging slightly higher, my left testicle hanging lower and further back making my scrotum look somewhat crooked also. It just doesn't look right. Its been 3 weeks and although the pain has died down it just feels generally uncomfortable and unsightly. Sometimes when i sit it now looks like my right testicle is trying to burst out of the sack. In the shower my right testicle drops back to normal and both look even. Its just when it retracts now that it pushes forward and looks like it turns sideways. I think I will have to bite the bullet and go see a doctor to put my mind at ease but by the sounds of it they wont have a clue whats wrong and just tell me Im fine, nothings changed when I know it has.

I was also diagnosed with Epididymo-Orchitis a few months back which has now completely healed, however I have been left with the exact same issue and 5 months down the line, the affected testicle constantly in front of the other (especially when walking and sitting) which then leads to sharp, irritated pain for a few hours and constantlynin discomfort, I can’t run or do any exercise properly without it hurting.

I am now realising that this is a complication from having epididymitis and not the infection/swelling itself, as I’ve had an ultrasound and all my blood flow and testicles are completely normal and healthy and no longer have an infection. It has remained like this since I first noticed the swelling months back but assumed it was the epididymitis.

Anyone in this thread telling people to “get out more” or that the testicle naturally hangs lower etc is an insult and doesn’t have this debilitating condition and should stay out of this thread.

I have no idea what the issue is itself, I’ve been trying to work it out for a long time and am having a follow up with my doctor next week to hopefully get an MRI groin scan as I believe it’s abnormal tissue growth or irritated/damaged ligament from the chronic swelling. I’m not sure but seeing this thread shows me it’s quite a common occurrence in post-epididymal cases.

I hope someone finds out what the issue is!

i had some sort of epididymitis. it feels like the testicle not as well as connected before. like the connection between the body and the back of the scrotum

I too feel the same that cane out as varicocele

Hello there I am also in too much depression with all this... i want to ask you all that while we are having this same problem do you have properly touched you upper part of testicle where varicocele develops... I too feel the left testicle somehow up and forward that too came stuck often while sitting and sleeping by side.. My left leg is paining also groin area is paining... I have done 3 usg and at last I was diagnosed with varicocele grade 1 while standing position... This thing just changed my life I can't study properly and do anything good now.. no doctors are helping me.. I don't know what will going to happen.. Allopathic doctor said we don't operate grade 1 and there is no medicine for treatment... And no guarantee that u will fully recovered after operation.. which may recur.

I just had a vasectomy a week and a half ago. That led to epididymitus. I started a round of antibiotics that will end tomorrow. The pain and swelling in the affected testicle has gone down, but now that testicle sits up and forward. Literally right next to my penis and even protrudes a little in front of my penis when I’m completely flacid. It is awful. Everything I do bumps into that testicle. I haven’t tried having sex yet, but I know that my testicle is going to get in the way. I have no idea what to do and am concerned seeing that no one else seems to have an answer either.

I am trying out to get rid of varicocele grade 1, I am taking homeopathy medicines which are too hyped to treat varicocele (check youtube) I am taking them from last 1 and a half months but the vein is the same.. but have some relief in the pain caused by it.. My life has ruined since the next day this problem starts... At random timed I have pain in my groin area.. and when i left my left leg i feel some swollen Between the upper thigh and groin.. do anyone feels the same ? And yes the testicular position is same as it before its upward and forward..

Hello if anyone here is from India please do reply to this message..

So getting similar symptoms with the right one higher and farther forward. Anyone got any updates as to if it goes away with time? I was diagnosed with epididymitis nearly a month ago no pain anymore but right teste still higher and further forward.

Hey Sam did you ever figure out a solution?
