What Is The Cure For Numbness On Left Side Of Testicle?
I have a slight numbness at the left side of my left testicle, it's not painful but I am concerned it has been like this for 7 days now. I have no problems to urinate or ejaculate but its slightly numb and it is only the left side region and a small portion of the inside of my left leg.
Such numbness usually appears due to skin nerve compression by too tight underwear or long travel. If any of this factors has been recently present, all you should do is to avoid them (loose underwear) and wait a week or two until the nerve will get back to normal (sometimes it does not). If you find any noodles like thing in the testis area, varicocele can give be the reason. If the numbness aggravates when coughing, hernia needs to be ruled out as well.
Hope this will help. Regards.
