Suffer From Erectile Dysfunction. Pain In The Penis And Testicles. 17 Year Old. Reason?
I have had erectile dysfunction since Saturday. I was absolutely fine on Friday, and then Saturday morning I woke up with decreased libido and I have only been able to get weak erections since. I have also noticed a pain on the left side of my penis and in my left testicle , sometimes also in my upper left thigh. It is not very bad pain but it is uncomfortable and enough for me to notice. I am seventeen years old.

Hello dear...
Regarding the problem of Erectile dysfunction, it is due to decreased blood supply to the penis.
And pain in the testicular region can be attributed to either trauma or inflammation/infection.
In your post you have not mentioned about any history of trauma.
So an infective or inflammatory cause can be thought of...such as orchitis or epididymo-orchitis.
Under such condition, you need to take antibiotics along with analgesics under the guidance of your Doctor.
There is nothing to worry...you will be fine.
Make sure you take the medications properly.
Also avoid wearing tight fitting underwear or trousers...so that pressure in the testicular area can be prevented.
Wishing you a Good Health. Let me know if I need to clarify further.
Thanks & take care.
