What Causes Pain And Swelling In The Testicle?

Yes, My boyfriend is having severe pain in his testicle. Feeling of heaviness and swelling as well. The pain radiates up to his lower abdomen with pain across both sides. He has had trouble getting off when we have sex and after trying masturbation for relief we found that was difficult also. He says it feels like he is about to come but then nothing happens and when it does it takes a very long time and very little comes out. He has diagnosed hisself with blue balls but the symptoms having been going on for about 3 or 4 days now. The do go away it seems when he does finally get off though. But come right back the next time we have sex and he can t get off. Any suggestions? Ice packs seem to help with the pain but nothing else other than ejaculation.
