Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Testicle

I had a problem with one of my testes as a teenager. One of my testes became very swollen and was very painful. After seeking medical attention the doctor wasn't sure if it was a tortion or an infection. I did not receive any treatment except for antibiotics. I was wondering how I could tell if the testicle was damaged. And if it has been damaged, what are some of the things that would result from having a damaged or dead testicle?

Hello,

Welcome to healthcaremagic.com!

I really appreciate your concern. If you suspect injury to your testicles I advise you to have Ultrasonography of the testicles to rule out any damage had happened to it.

If the your testicle is dead then you cannot feel pain on squeezing the testicles. Dead testicles can lead to development of tumor of the testicles. So if you have dead testicle then it should be removed as early as possible.

Hope my answer has solved your query. Take Care.

Thank you.

Best Regards.
Dr. Manan
