What Causes Gurgling And Sperm Discharge During Urination?

Posted on Wed, 4 Jun 2014

Question: Three or four years ago I had a testicular trauma. The left testicle would get sore from time to time and sometimes I would hear gurgling and see sperm come out with urine when I urinated. The testi hangs lower then the other and is a little smaller than the other. I had a physical three days ago and the PA said everything seemed fine except for tenderness in the left testicle. He scheduled me to see a urologist in two weeks from when i saw him. Is there something wrong or am i worried for nothing? Also if the testicle was torn or dead wouldn't i have bigger problems right now and wouldn't the physical I had have shown anything?

Hello,

Thank You for consulting HealthcareMagic!

Based on the information given by you, I also think that it is ok and nothing serious. However, we cannot take a chance like that. An ultrasound of this region would help diagnose any problem (if there), rather than just physical examination, as there is history of trauma. The concern is not regarding the point- little smaller than the other, but regarding history of trauma and tenderness. There are lot of other things that needs to be ruled out but after the physical examination by a Urologist

Regarding your other question- Also if the testicle was torn or dead wouldn't i have bigger problems right now and wouldn't the physical I had have shown anything?
Yes, you would have had bigger problems, if this was the case.

So I probably still have blood flow in the tender testicle right?Also what are the chances of it causing the other organ to twist?

Hi,
I would answer your specific questions as below:

So I probably still have blood flow in the tender testicle right?
-Yes, it should be.

Also what are the chances of it causing the other organ to twist?
-Cannot predict chances like that. But, as you are concerned, it is better to undergo an ultrasound of scrotum, which can clarify your doubt.

Take care!
