Should I Be Worried For The Change Of Position Of Right Testicle Which Is Not Painful But Only The Pull Down?
Hello,
Last evening I was sitting down and working on my laptop. I'm little obese and and thighs are muscular. I sat for 2 hours and when I tried to get up my right testicle got pulled between thighs. There was some pain at the moment but nothing serious. Today when I woke up my right testicle has changed its position. It is not paining but I can feel the pull down there. Should I be worried.? Thank you.

Hi, thank you for writing on Healthcare magic.
Actually, the nearness of the testes to the body is determined by the body temperature. When the temperature is a little bit high, the scrotal tissues relax and the testes move away from the body and when the temperature is a little bit low, the tissues contract and testes move towards the body. You do not need to worry. You probably noticed it because you thought something could be wrong with your testis. There is no problem with it. It is just a physiologic change.
I hope I have answered your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
I wish you good health
