touchy subject

[dan86]

well, not really sure why I'm posting this, but hey ho. I trust we're all adult enough that I won't get the urine extracted from me!

so the story- it's been happening for about 4/5 years now, about 4 or 5 times a year, and usually comes and goes in the same day. usually very painful.
basically, my balls! yesterday when I woke up I had this pain in my --------. A Lot more painful than usual to the point that I could hardly move. It never swells up or anything like that but just aches. It was the worst it's ever been yesterday and only properly went away this morning.the only thing I could do last night to ease the pain was to have a hot bath.
anyway, went to docs this afternoon and he has referred me to a neurologist marked as urgent.
safe to say I'm cacking it slightly now. probably wait a good 6 weeks for an appt as well.
any of you guys ever experience anything like this? The only pain I can liken it to is being kicked in the nuts.

Yes, and you have done the correct thing, getting to the docs....mine turn out to be a hernia, so there is a number of things it could be. It can be worrying, but think possitive, and let the guys do their job

stop wearing the pantyhose.

You'll only wait 6 to 8 weeks if there's nothing serious to report that needs dealing with urgently. It could be anything, hernia, torsion (where one of them gets twisted) but not being a medic I'm not going to comment further except to say that it's probably nothing serious. You've done the right thing getting it checked out.
Now that we have the sensible bit out of the way can we start with the infantile name calling and vicious p taking?

Is it definately your nuts...? As im, it could quite possibly be what is called "referred pain"

(When I did it it felt like hot boiling water inside) - it was sore but then I got nissed with mates, pain gone, went to sleep.

woke up at 3am and wept with pain.



Anyway it stayed for 2 years, I had a herniagram (controlled stabbing of the stomach cavity then filled with dye and xrayed). Ended up having a double inguinal hernia op booked....and then it disappeared :whatchutalkingabout

So it might not be your ballons, it might be something else you've ripped pressing on the nerves that service your man vegetables
