Suggest Treatment For Sensitive Testicle And Chest Pain
I am 41 years old, 6ft 4inches tall and 17 stone. Generally I am in good health.
One of my testicals has become quite sensitive. I have also had shooting pains into my chest sometimes when bending down which I believe is related to the sensitivity in my testical. During a self examination I noticed that the epididymis of one testical seems quite enlarged and this also seems to be where the pain is coming from.

Hello,
Your symptoms and mentioned history suggestive of epididymorchitis like inflammation of testis and epididymis. You can take anti inflammatory medication for your problem. The antibiotic course also can be prescribed like broad spectrum antibiotic for seven days.
If no improvement than USG testis should be done for further work up.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
