Suggest Treatment For Severe Testicle Pain
My husband is a fit guy in his late 40's, excercise's and goes to the gym. He has had torsion and hernia before and 6 years had a testicle removed due to build up of calcium. It now seems he is experiencing similar problems - pain, but no swelling. He is due to go for an ultrasound scan, but what causes build up of calcium in that area.
He is of an ethnic minority - ie West Indian, is this something do to with genetics ?

Hi,
Severe testicular pain occurs in torsion of testes and is considered as one of emergency so I would suggest you to visit a local surgeon in order to get it examined physically as well as ultrasonographically. Sometimes surgical correction is also needed.
Hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.
