4 months ago i started feeling a sudden discomfort in my right testicle, i went to my family doctor and she sent me to the urologist who did the ultrasound and checked for any lumps and he didnt find anything dangerous and he said that my testicle is fine, but the thing is that i have this weird discomfort and i cant find out whats wrong and im really scared about it, i dont have any STD because my gf is healthy, im sexually active and one thing that i have noticed is that when i do sport the pain seems to go away and i dont have any idea why, discomfort  is present in my scrotum and as i said i cant identify anything unusual, also it is not present all the time, sometimes it shows up and sometimes it goes away, i cant really specify if it is a pain or discomfort because it depends on how i touch my testicle but mostly its a weird discomfort, please somebody help im really scared and i fear of having cancer, i think about it all the time and its ruining my life, please help !

    Do you have large, low hangers? If you do the testicle might be stretching the chord that connects the testicle. Try wearing a jock strap for a few days.

      He emans do you have large testicles which hang lower down, in a larget scrotal area.

      If the testicles are large then as he says the weight of them pulling down could be causing the discomfort and a jock strap, by nature of tighly supporting, will ease the pressure caused by larger, more weighty, testicles pulling downwards

    If pulling the underwear tighter helped then ti really may be worth investing in a jock strap. The amount of tight fitting support they give is phenomenal and well worth the money.

    I have to use a jock strap and it does provide a great degree of relief, no matter now tight you pull underwear they will slip and keep the discomfort level up.

    I have my underwear custom made. I have outsize genitilia and if I go too long without support, my testicles start to ache. That is why I figured that you had the same problem. You may think your testicles are average size but they're probably bigger and heavier.

    I played sports when I was younger. In high school they made us wear a jockstrap and cup. When I played sports with my frieds, I didn't wear a jockstrap but the skin on my sac pulled up and kept my testicles close to my body to protect them so they didn't hang. the skin tightening during physical activity probably goes back to the stone age when nobody wore close and the body had a natural way to protect the family jewells. I know that mine hang down very low and while I love the look, they are very vulnerable hanging low and swinging in the breeze. When you play sports the sac is probably tightening and that is supporting your testicles and that is why you don't have pain.

      hi there, touch it when you are in pain. you might notice that it is smaller than than before maybe half of the original size or less.in this case it can be "Varicocele" . sometimes the pain getsharp enough to make you lie down for minutes to relief. Pain and Shrinking testi are the main symptomes.
