Some men face this problem because the testicles hurt after arousal. It is necessary to determine what to do and how to get rid of the discomfort only after studying the symptoms and identifying the cause.
There are many provoking factors for testicular pain. Some of them are caused by serious diseases that can be cured only under the supervision of a doctor.
Cause of pain
Faced with such a problem, you need to get acquainted with some features of the anatomy and physiology of the male body. After the onset of arousal, after 20-40 seconds, the blood circulation in the male genitalia increases and enters the pelvic organs.
Therefore, this leads to narrowing of the veins and the process of reverse blood flow is slowed down or stopped completely. Such a process is the basis of penis enlargement after arousal.
With the appearance of an erection, the penis increases in size 3 times, the changes in size reach even 10 cm, in contrast to the relaxed state. Given such a significant transformation of the organ, it needs early release and return it to rest.
If a person has any malfunction of the pelvic organs, then the discomfort arises from the created tension in the form of pain, especially because the testicles hurt for a long time.
Based on the physiological processes described above, it is clear why boys have testicular pain, especially if such a phenomenon occurs during puberty. The genitals are still not strong enough and not fully formed. Arousal puts excessive strain on the body, leading to pain.
Diseases
If the reason is that the body is developing pathology, then most likely it is a viral or bacterial disease. After the appearance of an inflammatory process in the male reproductive system, the organs are weakened, become vulnerable and any overstrain of the tissues leads to pain.
There are several diseases whose symptomatic manifestations include scrotal pain:
- orchitis - an inflammatory process that occurs as a result of mumps;
- prostatitis - the appearance of inflammation in the tissues of the prostate gland. The disease leads to the ingestion of viruses, lack of physical activity, frequent change of sexual partners, prolonged urinary retention. In the presence of prostatitis, testicular pain occurs even at rest of the penis. The nature of the pain is sharp, cutting. Additional symptoms include chills, fever and enlarged scrotum, difficulty urinating;
- organ deformity - if deformity of the male genitalia has occurred as a result of any disease or injury, then there is a risk of severe pain syndrome during arousal or intimacy. In such a situation, it is important to determine the cause and location of the deformation. Based on this, they choose competent measures to restore the normal condition of the penis. The same applies to the twisting of the testicles, which leads to compression of the spermatic cord and difficulty in releasing sperm;
- varicocele - if the boy's testicles hurt, then most likely the cause is in this disease. In particular, this is evidenced by a painful sensation in only one part of the scrotum, for example, the right testicle hurts. In addition, the pathology is recognized by varicose veins and the spermatic cord, which is visible to the naked eye through the skin of the scrotum. The pain during arousal intensifies;
- inguinal hernia - the main symptom is a protrusion of the peritoneum. Its location moves to a place unusual for the anatomical structure - to the inguinal canal. This leads to pinching of the spermatic cord and, accordingly, to the appearance of pain. Often the pathology develops asymptomatically, discomfort occurs only during intercourse or arousal.
A man's testicles can hurt due to mechanical injury to the intimate area.
Any infection, especially sexual, can provoke an inflammatory process in the scrotum. But even the common viral colds cause complications and lead to an inflammatory process in the male reproductive system.
Treatment
Given the list of diseases that cause testicular fractures after arousal, therapeutic measures are determined only after examination and analysis. At the first signs of any of the pathologies you should seek the help of a specialist, as each disease has its own characteristics and nuances in terms of treatment therapy.
In order not to experience prolonged discomfort, it is important to understand how to relieve pain. This can be done with the help of completed intercourse or masturbation. After ejaculation, the pressure on the organ will decrease and then the pain disappears spontaneously.
If it is not possible to complete sexual intercourse or resort to masturbation, then you have to wait a while, the discomfort will disappear by itself in a maximum of 4-6 hours.
Conclusion
In the first situation of pain in the scrotum, it is recommended to consult a doctor, whether the pain goes away on its own or not. Based on the normal course of physiological processes of the male reproductive system, after arousal pain should not occur.
Accordingly, if there is one, it indicates the presence of some dysfunction or pathology in the man's body.
