My left testicle started to feel soar
yesterday. It was either yesterday or
the day before that I remember as I was
changing I noticed pain after taking my
shorts off. I was sort of in a hurry and
removed the shorts without unbuckling my
belt. I'm not sure if that was the
culprit or not, but when I took a shower
earlier today I noticed that my blood
vessels had been enlarged and a
fluid-filled sac. I experienced some
pain while touching and examining it.
While in a relaxed state the pain subdues,
unless further provoked.
So I did a little online reasearch and
discovered:
varicocele: this doesn't seem to be the
case because it is said that it doesn't
cause any amount of pain, although in a
worse case scenerio pain is presentable.
Hydrocele, which is most common in
children, sounds possible because it
discusses a sac-like fluid buildup.
I looked around at hernia and torsional
strain, but at this point, i'm not exactly
sure.
I will make a doctors appointment after
discussing with parents, the fun part.

It sounds like your testes may have gotten
switched around. This is extremely
dangerous and you should get to the
doctors as quickly as possible if that is
indeed what it is. Let them stay like
this to long and they will no longer
function properly.

Well i'm grateful they aren't. My testes
are in the correct order, because my right
testicle has always been larger than my
left and that is where it still is.

I am also grateful to let everyone know
that the swelling has dramatically
reduced.

Good, they may have just been temporarily
switched around, and then went back; that
is really pretty common. Glad to hear
your doing better!
