What is the outlook for permanent testicular numbness?

Posted , 1 user is following.

My friend has had total testicular numbness for months. They couldn't figure out what was wrong so he saw a Urologist. The Urologist said it wasn't a problem unless he was banging them into things and bruising them. Is that true? I ask because I've been reading about people who can't feel pain and most of them don't live to adulthood because they end up hurting themselves without realizing it. Also does anyone know of literature that discusses permanent testicular numbness? I haven't been able to find any online.
