Why does one side of the testicle hurt? Causes of testicular pain

Men's testicles are one of the most important sexual organs, because they are not only related to the health of men's reproductive system, but also affect men's reproduction. Once there is a problem with the testicles, the quality of men's sperm may decrease. What is the reason for men's testicular pain on one side?

Why does one testicle hurt?

Testicular pain can generally be divided into acute pain and chronic pain:

1. Acute pain

It is more common in orchitis and injury. In addition to blood infection, orchitis is more common when bacteria retrograde through the urethra to the epididymis and testicles, causing epididymitis and orchitis. Clinically, epididymis and testicle swelling and pain can be seen. Relatively speaking, acute pain is easier to diagnose.

2. Chronic pain

The pain is mild, generalized, and radiates, so it is not easy to determine the exact location of the inflammation. Some pain occurs after sexual intercourse, which may be due to the high congestion of the genitals and gonads caused by sexual excitement. Some pain is caused by varicocele or pain radiating from other parts of the body, such as radiating testicular pain caused by ureteral stones. At this time, the real cause must be carefully identified in order to effectively treat the symptoms.

Causes of orchitis

There are many causes of orchitis, such as infection, trauma, and tumors. It is also one of the common diseases in men's outpatient clinics. When patients describe their symptoms, the nature of the pain varies depending on the disease, such as bloating, falling pain, and knife-like pain; the degree of pain also varies from dull pain to severe pain. In addition to the pain caused by the testicular lesions themselves, the epididymis, spermatic cord lesions and inflammation in the scrotum often cause testicular pain.
