Overview

Answers for Testicular Pain, Swelling or Lumps

Scrotal ultrasound is the first-line test for evaluating the testicles, epididymis and surrounding structures. Doppler is used to check blood flow, which is important when pain is sudden.

Sudden, severe testicular pain can be an emergency — go to the nearest emergency room or call 911.
