Suggest Treatment For Sudden Sharp Pain In The Testicle

Hi, On two or three occasions over the past 3 weeks I ve had a random sharp pain in my right testicle for a couple seconds and then it went away. I ve been looking up symptoms and the most common thing that came up is testicular torsion but I have no swelling and it seems that for that to be the case the pain has to be constant for days, where as my pain comes and goes every week or so

Hello dear
Understand your concern.
It is not testicular torsion it is medical emergency, in which severe pain along with redness is there.

I think it may be trauma or epididmytis or orchitis as it is since last three week.
Other causes of testicular pain are below:
Chronic Prostatitis, Kidney stone, Hydrocele, Cancer of testis, Vericose vein of testis, Hernia, Cyst of epididymis, STDs (syphilis and gonorrhoea)

You should consult the surgeon and do following test for diagnossi
1. Blood: CBC, ESR, PSA, Glucose, Urine: Routine and microscopic examination
2. STD screening
3. USG of scrotum and abdomen
4. Biopsy should be take from testis
5. Rectal examination for prostate, testing of prostate fluid
All this help in diagnosis

Advice for you:
Tablet ibupufen 500 mg two times a day
Tablet Cefuroxime 400 mg two times a day
Avoid sex
Avoid heavy weight lifting
Wear supporting device and elevate the scrotum
Wear loose inner wear
Warm bath

Hope this may help you
Best regards
dr. Sagar
