Suggest Treatment For Pain In Testicles After Working Out

I went free ocean diving at a depth of 15 feet. Upon surfacing it felt like I had been kicked in the scrotum. It lasted for a few minutes. I worked out a few days later and immediately after finishing I had pain in my testicles. My right testicle is now swollen. What could be causing this?

Hi,Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.
Dear I read your query and reviewed it with context to your query facts.
I understood your health concerns and feel Concerned about them.

Based on the facts of your query, you seem to suffer from-
Painful Torsion testes post work up in sensitized testes, which had pressure difference hit while you came up after diving.
The workup after few days gave twist to the already sensitized or partially twisted testes after the post-diving hit feeling.
Treatment -
Get the Surgeon's clinical exam and its assessment after USG study of the right swollen testes.
Manual reversion to the normal position of the Testes should be tried after the USG report assessment.
If this fails you need to go for Immediate surgical correction,as any delay would permanently damage your testes.
Other possibility of retractile testes also needs to be kept in mind while treating such a case.
Attending Surgeon would take care of other possiblities also according to the USG assessment with clinical findings.


Hope this would help you to reduce worry with your problem.
Take care and wish you to recover fast and Live healthy.

Hope this reply would help you to plan further treatment with your family and specialist doctors there.

Welcome for any further query in this regard.

Good Day!!
