Some men face a problem like testicles hurt after arousal. It should be determined what to do and how to get rid of discomfort only after studying the symptoms and identifying the cause.
There are many factors that cause testicular pain. Some of them are caused by serious diseases, which can only be cured under the supervision of a doctor.
Cause of pain
Faced with such a problem, you should familiarize yourself with some features of the anatomy and physiology of the male body. After the appearance of arousal, after 20-40 seconds, blood circulation in the male genital organ increases and enters the pelvic organs.
As a result, this leads to a narrowing of the veins and the reverse blood flow process slows down or stops completely. This process is the basis of penis enlargement after arousal.
With the onset of erection, the penis increases its size by 3 times, changes in size even reach 10 cm, in contrast to a calm state. Given such a significant transformation of the organ, it needs an early discharge and return it to a calm state.
If a man has malfunctions in the work of the pelvic organs, then the discomfort comes from the overload created in the form of pain, especially for this reason the testicles hurt for a long time.
Based on the physiological processes described above, it becomes clear why boys have pain in the testicles, especially if such a phenomenon occurs during puberty. The sexual organ is not yet strong enough and is not fully formed. Arousal causes excessive load on the organ, which leads to pain.
Illnesses
If the reason is that a pathology develops in the body, it is most likely a viral or bacterial disease. After the appearance of an inflammatory process in the male reproductive system, the organs weaken, become vulnerable, and any excessive stress on the tissues causes pain.
There are several diseases, the symptomatic manifestations of which include pain in the scrotum:
- orchitis - an inflammatory process that appears as a result of the transferred mumps;
- prostatitis - the appearance of inflammation in the tissues of the prostate gland. The disease leads to the ingestion of viruses, physical inactivity, frequent changes of sexual partners, prolonged urinary retention. In the presence of prostatitis, pain in the testicles also occurs in a calm state of the penis. The nature of the pain is acute, cutting. Additional symptoms are chills, fever and increased scrotum size, difficulty urinating;
- deformation of the organ - if, as a result of diseases or injuries, a deformation of the male genital organ has occurred, there is a risk of a pronounced 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 select competent measures to restore the normal state of the penis. The same is true for testicular torsion, which leads to compression of the spermatic cord and obstruction of sperm release;
- varicocele: if the boy's testicles hurt, most likely the cause is in this disease. In particular, this is evidenced by a painful sensation only in one part of the scrotum, for example, the right testicle hurts. In addition, the pathology is recognized by the enlarged veins and the spermatic cord, visible to the naked eye through the skin of the scrotum. Pain during arousal intensifies;
- inguinal hernia - the main symptom is a protrusion of the peritoneum. Its position moves to an unusual place for the anatomical structure - the inguinal canal. This leads to pinching of the spermatic cord and, as a result, to the appearance of pain. Often the pathology develops asymptomatically, discomfort appears only during sexual intercourse or arousal.
A man's testicles can hurt due to a mechanical injury to the intimate area.
Any infection, especially sexual, can provoke an inflammatory process in the scrotum. But even common viral colds give complications and lead to an inflammatory process in the male reproductive system.
Treatment
Given the list of diseases that cause rupture of the testicles 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, since each disease has its own characteristics and nuances with regard to therapy for cure.
In order not to experience prolonged discomfort, it is important to understand how to relieve pain. This can be done with the help of full intercourse or masturbation. After ejaculation, the tension on the organ will decrease and therefore the pain will disappear spontaneously.
If it is not possible to complete sexual intercourse or resort to masturbation, you need to wait a while, the discomfort will disappear on its own in a maximum of 4-6 hours.
Conclusion
At the first situation of pain in the scrotum, it is recommended to consult a doctor, regardless of whether the pain goes away on its own or not. Based on the normal course of the physiological processes of the male reproductive system, after arousal, pain should not appear.
Consequently, if there is one, this indicates the presence of some kind of dysfunction or pathology in a man's body.
