Could I Binge On Alcohol And Amphetamine Drugs While Experiencing Pain In The Left Testicle?

I’ve been taking adderal to study and now that I’m done with all my exams I’ve gone on an illicit amohetamine and alcohol binge. My left testicle hurts and the pain can be felt up into my side. It’s not major but enough to be noticed. Can I keep doing these illicit amphetemines

Hi,

I cannot say in your particular case without an examination. There's various levels of testicular pain. Amphetamine causes decreased blood circulation. This can cause an area to just die painfully. Therefore, any sudden pain in an area after taking Methamphetamine is a reason for immediately seeing a doctor because there are only minutes before permanent damage is done.

Often, but not always, there are discolorations from bad circulation that are pretty obvious. This is much less so for internal organs like testes and heart. Most testicular pain is not that severe.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
