Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query,
Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have been indulging in masturbation since many years and now facing problems related to sexual activities. You have a doubt about the size of the testicles being reduced to half.
First of all there is myth in a mind of common man that excessive masturbation is the reason of all sexual problems. But I would like to state that it has been discussed in scientific forums all over the world and proved scientifically that masturbation does not have any negative effect on any organ or system in the body. All the problems that you are facing now are mind related and due to anxiety.
Following measure will help you to boost up your confidence and to improve your general health and sexual potency.
1) Practice regular exercise for 45 minutes followed by meditation for 1/2 an hour in the morning.
2) Take high protein diet rich in vegetables and fruits and Vitamin A, C, D, E and Zinc
3)Take anti oxidants like Almonds 5-6 everyday.
4) Avoid alcohol and smoking.
Though it is harmless, excessive and frequent habitual masturbation does affect quality of erection and delays ejaculation.Please try to reduce the frequency of masturbation by keeping yourself busy in activities like sports,reading ,social work etc so that you will not get free time to masturbate.
As regards pain in testicles you can take pain killers like Diclofenac twice daily for 5 days.
Hope I have answered your query, please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,
I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.

Im not trying to undermine your evaluation but i indulged in an hour long game of badminton today and the pain was excruciating at the end of it, and i am 110% certain that my testicles have shrunk and i dont want to ignore the pain because it is telling me something is wrong, i will stop masturbating for life now however. Are you certain that it is in the mind? and will it heal over time if i stop masturbating?
Brief Answer:
very likely to be in the mind
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up.
The pain in testicles after playing could be due to trivial trauma while playing or mild infection of Epididymis. This.This can be cured with anti inflammatory drugs like Diclofenac twice daily for a week .
As regards size of the testicles being reduced (which is unlikely), it is to be confirmed by doing Ultrasound scanning of scrotum.
Thanks and Regards.
