Having Noticed Sharp Pains In Lower Right Abdomen After Dislocating Right Testicles
Dear Dr.
I am a 19 year old male. When i was 3 years old i dislocated my right testicle due to an injury. I do not remember any surgery being performed on me and neither have i ever felt much pain. However, today since morning there has been a very sharp pain in my lower right abdominal, and when i feel towards my testicles sack, i can feel the right dislocated testicle sort of stuck and not being in the sack. I have never been able to feel this testicle before, and when i touch it i feel a lot of pain. What do you suggest I do? Should i just ignore the pain since this is the first time in 16 years that my dislocated testicle has caused me pain? Or should i opt for some sort of treatment?

Hello
Thanks for query.
Testis is freely mobile in scrotal sac hence there is no question of it getting dislocated .
It is unlikely that of pain in abdomen are related to injury in childhood after 16 years..
The pain in abdomen and scrotum may be due to infection of testis itself (Orchitis ) which needs to be confirmed by clinical examination by a qualified General surgeon or Urologist and doing Ultrasound Scanning of scrotum.
In the mean while you need to take antibiotics like Augmentin and anti inflammatory medication like Diclofenac twice daily .
Further treatment will be decided by him which will be based on clincal findings and result of Scanning .
Ensure to drink more water .
