What should I do if my testicles hurt after being kicked?

The male testicle is an important male reproductive organ and is very fragile. However, there are always many accidents in daily life that can cause the testicle to be kicked, which makes men feel very painful. So what should you do if the testicle is kicked? In fact, there are many ways to relieve it. Sometimes jumping can also relieve the pain.

1. Why is it so painful?

The entire external genitals of men, including the penis and testicles, are critical parts, especially the testicles. Due to the distribution of testicular nerves and the thick and tough white membrane outside, its volume is strictly limited and cannot be easily deformed. Therefore, the testicles are a pair of delicate organs that cannot be pinched or touched. They are extremely sensitive to pressure. For example, you can pinch your thigh muscles or belly at will, and it will not feel particularly painful or uncomfortable, but if you use the same or less force to pinch the testicles, it will be unbearable. Therefore, once a man's perineum, including the penis, scrotum, and testicles, is hit hard by a football, he will definitely roll over in pain, suffer unbearable pain, and even faint from the pain, and suffer the so-called neurological shock. Many novels in the past have described stories of people dying from being kicked in the testicles.

2. Jumping can relieve pain

Generally speaking, when the scrotum is hit, the testicles reflexively shrink upwards. Therefore, if the hit is not very serious, as an on-site emergency first aid measure, the injured person should be forced to stand up and jump vigorously so that the shrunken testicles can quickly return to their original position. Otherwise, if the testicles are squeezed upwards due to strong external force and are in an abnormal position for a long time, the blood vessels will be twisted, the testicles will be compressed, the blood supply to the testicles will be interrupted, and the ischemia time will be too long, which may lead to necrosis of the testicular tissue itself.

3. Sometimes you can’t do without medicine

If the pain lasts for several days, you can take some painkillers orally to relieve the pain. You can also consider buying some Yunnan Baiyao and swallowing it with white wine and applying warm compresses locally to promote blood circulation and dissipate blood stasis. Also, avoid cold water stimulation locally. Cold stimulation may have a numbing effect at the time and can cause blood vessels to contract, which is not conducive to blood circulation and blood stasis.

4. If the condition is serious, seek medical attention immediately

If the scrotum swells up quickly and the pain persists, or if there is blood in the urine, emergency measures should be taken and the patient should be sent to the urology department of the hospital for examination and treatment immediately.
