Hello,

If it is twisted testicle, the pain is so crucial that you might land up in an emergency now only. So, definitely it is not that.

What could have happened is, there might be hematoma formed due to trauma and bleeding would have been collected in the subcutaneous tissue which needs some time to clear it off without any medication.

You can be treated symptomatically for now with painkillers like Diclofenac, Tramadol or Pethidine. Since you have severed pain kindly take these tablets for 3 to 5 days after food.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
