The most common cause of testicular swelling and pain is that bacteria retrograde through the urethra to the epididymis and testicles, causing epididymitis and orchitis, which cause swelling and pain in the epididymis and testicles. In the acute stage of orchitis, the skin of the scrotum is red, swollen and painful, and there is a noticeable feeling of falling when walking. In the acute stage, the symptoms of epididymitis are swelling and pain in the scrotum, which may pull the lower abdomen and thigh roots. If orchitis and epididymitis are not treated properly in the acute stage, they may turn into chronic orchitis and epididymitis. Testicular pain indicates that there is something wrong with the testicles. It is recommended that you should go to a regular hospital for a relevant examination in time, and then treat the symptoms according to the cause.

Injury: Testicular injuries are mostly related to violence, car accidents, etc. After the injury, the testicles are severely painful accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and even fainting or shock. During physical examination, there are swollen, painful, unclear contours or scrotal congestion, obvious tenderness, etc.

Testicular torsion: Generally, there is vigorous activity a few hours before the onset of the disease, or the testicles have been subjected to external force. Severe testicular pain occurs suddenly during sleep or rest. This is the first symptom of the disease and one of the main diagnostic bases. Some patients also have nausea and vomiting, scrotal swelling, and obvious tenderness.

Epididymitis: Epididymitis can cause sudden high fever and elevated white blood cell count, swelling and pain in the affected scrotum, a feeling of heaviness, pulling pain in the lower abdomen and groin, which is aggravated when standing or walking. The affected epididymis is enlarged and has obvious tenderness. Chronic prostatitis can also cause testicular pain, which can be said to be one of the causes of testicular pain. It manifests as unilateral pain, mostly dull pain or pulling pain, which is persistent. Most patients are young and strong, and it is rare in the elderly.

Orchitis: Patients with mumps may develop orchitis, which can cause testicular pain and swelling.

Testicular pain can be divided into acute and chronic. In acute testicular pain, the testicles are enlarged and painful, the patient has a high body temperature, is afraid of cold, vomits, has a headache and lower abdominal pain. Testicular injury is generally caused by trauma. Vigorous exercise, sexual intercourse, and violence can sometimes cause strong contraction of the levator testis muscle, causing the testicle to twist and cause severe pain. The clinical symptoms of acute testicular pain are more obvious and easy to diagnose. Chronic testicular pain may be caused by inflammation. The pain is milder, has radiating pain, and is prolonged. It is not easy to determine the exact location of the inflammation.
