What Causes Sudden Onset Of Squeezing Pain In Testicles?

My boyfriend is having sudden onset of squeezing pain sensation in his balls. He said it seems to be more intense on the left. He said it started yesterday. Stopped. And then started back up today. Today he has taken aleve because the pain is lasting longer. He did not take anything yesterday. He has not lifted anything heavy today. He works in receiving so he does not have a sedentary job. He is a healthy 36y/o African American male

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Most probably it will be an epididymitis/orchitis.
However we have to rule out conditions like testicular torsion also.
As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
Consult a general surgeon and plan for an ultrasound with Doppler.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
