Testicular Injury
If a testicle is injured, it can cause pain and swelling. This can result in injury to the epididymis (the cord that connects the testicles to the vas deferens) or damage to the spermatic cord, which contains nerves and blood vessels. Physicians can treat these injuries with ice, anti-inflammatory drugs, rest, and surgery.
If a person has recently suffered an injury to the groin area, such as a sports tackle or car accident, it’s essential to see a doctor immediately if they are experiencing any pain or swelling in the scrotum.
