Sensible Testicles

Here's the thing, I had an infection in 1996, and my testicles got so big i couldn't walk anymore. The doctor who treated me did not want to give me anti-inflamatory medicin at firts and he waited maybe a week before he did so. When i took those pills everything came back to normal size, but my testicles became very sensible, and still are. I lead a normal life and all, sexually active with my wife, and when i get excited the pain gets less, but on a daily base i do feel that they heart if i sit down awkward, or if i want to cross my legs i have to be careful and do it gently, i can't get a testicle massage for example. I asked a couple of doctors and they said it is normal after they hand tested me and that i have sensible testicles only.

Any Ideas out there, i don't feel confortable with the Drs answers.

sorry i missed out on all the fun, but being a guy, I FEEL YOUR PAIN ! haha   wow, enlarged testicles ouch, so have you been back to the doctor that "hand tested" you and told him they STILL hurt ?  i would kick his ass, or at least see another doctor.  i wonder if the swelling stretched something like a vein that could still be ruptured ?  well, good luck with that.

Yes, UROLOGIST, not neurologist!!! Prostatitis can cause sensible, er...I mean sensitive testicles, and can be easily diagnosed.

Not a neurologist, though.  A urologist.  Neurologist is for your head, the one much further north of your testicles.  :-)

Ok guys, thanks a lot for the feedback.  I have seen a couple of general health drs. and they both said not to worry and that sensitive, not sensible, testicles are common. I will go see a Neurologist for sure, but i wanted to know if anybody on this forum has had, or heard or read anything similar. I have been living with this problem for almost 10 years now, it isn't getting worst, and not getting better either, which makes me think that the previous Drs. were right, nonetheless i will go and have my Sensitive testicles played with and checked.

Thanks again to all.

Ask for a referral to a urologist if you haven't already.

I'm not sure either.  But, it sounds like everybody else snuck into the rum balls while I was out.  SHAME, SHAME, SHAME

Did you at least save me a few?

No, sillies.
A sensible testicle is one that uses protection when going to the testicle massage parlor.  Dr. H would be proud of this sensible testicle.  This way, this testicle never has to worry about catching an STD from hand/sensible testicle contact.

Sorry if we seemed in*sensitive*.  None of us meant any harm.  Please forgive.  We forget that there are others that use this site that aren't from an English speaking background.  Quite frankly, some of us that ARE from an English speaking background don't make sense, either.  But, I digress.

I'm sorry that you don't seem to be getting the info that you need.  Unfortunately, most of the men that visit this site regularly don't seem to be here today.  We'll keep your post going, though, and they will more than likely check it tomorrow.  I hope you find some relief soon.  Have you considered getting another doctor's opinion?  What kind of doc did you go to?  A urologist would be your best bet.  They specialize in urology-genital symptoms.

I didn't mean to start a big joke thread,  I honestly wondered if you meant "sensitive".  

When I google "sensitive testicals",  a lot of medical concerns come up.  This doesn't seem normal, and it doesn't seem like something you should ignore.  

Go back to your doctor for another check,  hopefully all is well, but it seems to me healthy testicals don't usually cause men pain.

It means they make good decisions after thinking things over thoroughly.

What are testicle massages?  Is that like a happy ending?
