Suggest Medication For Testicle Pain And Swelling Caused Due To A Injury
Hi..A hard tennis ball hit directly on my testicles while playing cricket.Its been 30 min now and the pain gradually reducing now. But I still have the little pain continuously. I found not much swelling as of now. Please suggest me what best I can do about this to prevent any further issues. Thank you!
Hi, sorry about the injury. If the injury is mild, you can manage it by conservative method such as ice packs and some painkillers with scrotal support to prevent any damage immediately after trauma. Swelling is one of the most important sign of major injury. You said, there is reduction in the size. So don't worry. It might be mild one. Better you may for scrotal Ultrasound with Doppler which shows both tissue injury and also blood flow abnormalities. Please take rest for two or three days which may helpful to recover completely from injury. Use comfortable briefs, keep ice packs for sometime to reduce the swelling, take painkillers for three days and rest. Hope you will better soon.
