What Causes Pain In The Testicle?
Hey,
Im 16 years old and ive been experiancing a dull ache first in my right testicle but now i also feel it abit in my left, the thing is it isnt continuous it stops then starts, i havent noticed any change in the testicles except that the right is a bit more mushy than the other but sizes seem fine and as they always were.
I would not like to get a examination unless absolute necissary obviously as im 16 im not all that confident at the moment, my mum and dad said it probably just the stage of growing up and i shouldnt worry about it as it should get better, and in the past few days its getting better but of course the problem is still there, is there any sort of medication i should take or any advice?
Thanks!

Hi.
Thank for your query.
Noted your history and understood your concerns at the age of 16 years and an opinion of your parents.
You have a dull ache first in the right testicle but now i the left also.
Getting examination done by a Doctor is never by choice but by necessity of yours getting a proper early diagnosis and proper treatment.
There is no alternative to getting a proper clinical evaluation and examination by an expert.
You also need further evaluation of the urinary tract by means of investigations :
- Ultrasonography and color doppler examination of the abdomen and the scrotum as you need the most proper diagnosis.
- Tests of blood and urine.
- Clinical examination by an Urologist or a General Surgeon.
You have to insist your parents for getting properly investigating, getting a proper treatment.
Till you get one, have scrotal support.
Drink plenty of oral fluids.
I hope this answer helps you.
