Types of left testicular pain

We all know that although many diseases sound the same, there are actually many types of them. Testicular pain is a very common phenomenon, but there are many reasons that lead to this phenomenon. So when you have this symptom, you must go to the hospital for a detailed examination and then receive treatment after diagnosis. Next, we will introduce in detail the types of left testicular pain.

Acute testicular pain

Orchitis and testicular injury are common factors causing acute testicular pain. In orchitis, the testicles are enlarged and painful, and the patient has a high body temperature, fear of cold, vomiting, headache and lower abdominal pain. Testicular injury is generally caused by trauma. Vigorous exercise or 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 obvious and easy to diagnose.

Chronic testicular pain

Chronic testicular pain may be caused by inflammation. The pain is mild, radiating, and lasts for a long time. It is difficult to determine the exact location of the inflammation. Testicular pain is not necessarily proportional to the severity of the inflammation, but is related to the individual's nerve sensitivity.

Chronic testicular pain may also be caused by varicocele or pain radiating from other parts of the body. At this time, corresponding examinations should be carried out to carefully identify the real cause so as to provide symptomatic treatment.

The symptoms of testicular pain caused by different reasons are also different. Patients with infection have more severe testicular pain. It may even feel like a knife cutting, and it will be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as severe chills. At this time, the scrotum is red and swollen, and the pain is more obvious when the testicles are touched. When suffering from tuberculosis infection, it is often accompanied by a history of tuberculosis in the urinary system or other parts of the body. It manifests as dull testicular pain, a feeling of bloating in the lower abdomen, and scrotal swelling. In severe cases, pus will flow out. When these lesions are touched by hand, there are uneven nodules, hard in texture, and often adhere to the scrotal skin.

The above content is an introduction to the types of left testicular pain. If you find yourself experiencing such symptoms in your daily life, don’t panic too much. Many diseases can be cured through medication and surgery, so you should not take the disease lightly, nor be too nervous. Face it with a normal attitude, and you will definitely recover.
