Horrible aches in the testicles for months from not masturbating

Why do people say that quitting masturbation wont do anything? They are very very wrong, here is whats happening: im having really bad cramps and they go away if i masturbate, however im trying to stop masturbating and these cramps are awful. I masturbated a month ago after abstaining for a long time and my aches went away. About 2 weeks after that they started to return in the form of minor pains, then they just went to full on cramps. I am about 41 days into abstaining so far and they really cramp. I know this is not a bacterial infection because 1. ive had these cramps since the beginning of summer when i stopped masturbating 2. i would be dead if its been that long without treatment. 3. the area is not red or swollen they look perfectly fine. Will it hurt me not to masturbate? My body seems to need a release so bad that it utilizes my immune system in the form of cramps to get me to masturbate, this makes me thing something bad will happen if i keep abstaining like it turns into an inflammation or something.

orchitis is not blue balls. orchitis is a painful infection or inflammation of the testicles while "blue balls" can be called epididymal hypertension if you want the medical term.

   Yes, BluCrystal, it truly is a medical condition.  I think the medical term is Orchitis.

I thought Blue Balls was something a guy, used to say to a balky woman to get her to have sex.  Is this a true medical condition? - Blu

This condition is called "Blue Balls" - see a doctor about what can be done besides masturbating.  Very common among young men in the military.

Well, in my culture, there is nothing wrong with masturbation, unless it's too much (like choosing masturbation over sex, or masturbating when you are supposed to be doing something else).  Obviously, you have a very strong reason for wanting to stop.  I suggest you IGNORE it completely.  The more you think about it, the worse it will get. - Blu
