Why does it hurt to tap the testicles?

The human body is a high-precision device in the world. If a part of the human body breaks down, it will cause damage to our normal daily life and work. Some organs of men are very sensitive, and they can be infected with various diseases if they are not careful. The testicles are a very delicate organ of men. Why do some men feel pain when they gently pat their testicles? What causes this?

If a man feels pain when he gently taps his testicles in daily life, he must pay great attention to it. This is mostly because he has orchitis. If it is orchitis that causes him to feel pain when he gently taps his testicles, he will also have the following symptoms:

(1) High fever and fear of cold.

(2) Pain in the diseased testicles, with radiating pain in the scrotum, inner thighs, and groin areas.

(3) The diseased testicles are swollen and tender. If they are purulent, they can be felt as if they were subcutaneous abscesses.

(4) Often accompanied by erythema and itching of the scrotal skin and accumulation of hydrocele in the scrotum.

Why does it hurt when a man's testicles are gently tapped?

Testicular pain in men is generally divided into two conditions: one is subacute persistent pain, and the other is chronic habitual pain. Subacute pain is common in orchitis and damage. In addition to blood circulation infection, orchitis is more commonly caused by bacteria traveling backward through the urethra to the epididymal cyst and male testicles, leading to epididymitis and orchitis. Clinical medicine shows that epididymal cysts and testicular enlargement and pain are common. Testicular damage has a history of trauma and partial swelling and hemorrhage. Intense fitness exercise or sexual intercourse or violent behavior can sometimes cause the levator testis to contract significantly, which in turn causes the testicles of men with long frenulum to twist and cause severe testicular pain. Because the twisted testicles block the blood supply to the testicles, in addition to severe testicular pain, the male testicles also have scrotal swelling and skin edema. Relatively speaking, subacute pain is relatively easy to diagnose.

Chronic pain lasts for a long time, the pain is milder, widespread, and has radiating pain, so it is difficult to identify the exact location of the inflammation. Male testicular pain is not necessarily proportional to the severity of the inflammation. Some people have a high level of sensitivity, and even a slight inflammation can cause more severe pain; while others are slower, and the pain is milder.

Some pain occurs after sex, which may be caused by sexual impulses that cause hematoma at a higher width than the sex organs and prostate. Some pain is caused by radiating pain in other parts of the body, such as radiating testicular pain caused by ureteral stones. At this time, it is necessary to carefully identify the real cause in order to solve it with reasonable symptomatic treatment.

Testicular pain, called "ziteng" in traditional Chinese medicine, has many causes, which may be related to factors such as cold stagnation in the liver meridian, liver fire and damp heat in the lower part of the body, liver depression and qi stagnation, qi deficiency and blood stasis, etc. Testicular pain can be caused by lust, muscle fatigue, anger, or diet with alcohol.
