What Causes Pain In The Testicles Of A Child?
It s 10:00 at night, my 10 year old son is complaining of pain in his testicles. He is about 98 lbs with no medical problems but adhd. My husband thinks puberty and I googled and wondered about testicular torsion. What other symptom could help to see if it could be puberty (so we wait to make him a regular doctor appointment) or testicular torsion (where I should rush him to emergency now)?

Hello,
We have to rule out possibilities like torsion and epididymitis.
Consult a general surgeon at the earliest and plan for an ultrasound scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
