Testicular torsion usually causes sudden, severe pain, but the duration of pain varies from person to person. Testicular torsion is an emergency that occurs mainly in adolescent or young men. It is caused by torsion of the testicles and spermatic cords, resulting in obstruction of the blood supply to the testicles. This pain is usually sudden and intense, and may last for hours or even days. The characteristics of testicular torsion pain are: 1. Sudden pain: pain usually occurs suddenly within hours, and may occur during sleep. 2. Persistent pain: pain is usually persistent, does not relieve itself, and may gradually increase. 3. Involved pain: Pain may radiate to the lower abdomen, groin or waist. 4. Nausea, vomiting: Some patients may experience nausea, vomiting and other symptoms. It should be noted that the pain of testicular torsion may be similar to pain caused by other diseases, such as epididymitis, orchitis, etc. Therefore, if testicular pain occurs, especially sudden onset of severe pain, should seek medical attention promptly, for detailed examination and diagnosis. For adolescents and young men, if testicular pain occurs, should seek medical attention immediately, because testicular torsion, if not treated in time, may lead to testicular necrosis, thereby affecting fertility. A doctor usually performs a detailed physical examination and ultrasound to determine if testicular torsion is present. If testicular torsion is diagnosed, surgery should be performed immediately to restore blood supply to the testicles. In summary, testicular torsion is a serious condition that can lead to serious consequences if left untreated. Therefore, if testicular pain occurs, seek medical attention promptly for early diagnosis and treatment.
