Question: I had slight Testicle torsion (in right testicle) back in December (the left testicle was removed when I was young). I had the surgery and it was treated well. unfortunately, after the operation with 5 months or more, I still get pains in the testicle.so the urologist had an ultrasound test and it was fine.so the urologist wanted to make sure it is an infection or some pain. He asked me for sperm analysis test to check for infection and result was no infection, then the doctor decided to go further with hormone test and the hormone test was testrone was low testo 251 ng/dl. he advised me with hormone therapy but I refused.

The question now, I still get pains when I carry something or do some sport or even any big move, when I seat on a high chair or long on the desk, I get the whole area numbness including my penis and the testicle. as soon I stand and walk a bit I feel the rush of blood in the whole area. when I try to touch the testicle, it feels like pain in the side either it was the same place the operation or nerves, but I can't see anywhere stitches or I don't urinate blood. last advice I got from the urology, as more I get pains, I take some pain killers. can you advice what to do or what kind of thing happening to me here? especially the pain and numbness are not constant, sometimes are going high and sometimes a day or two passes without pain. concerning my sexual life, I still get an erection and am able to do sexual intercourse normally.


Thanks

Dear Dr Rommstein,

Thank you for your feedback, I did the surgery in Germany, so am not sure which way was it done. my question now, if I decide to live with pain and adapt with it, will it affect on long term on the testicle size and may lead to losing it (such as currently i had testo 251)?


Thanks
