Can exercise cause testicular pain? - #60160
I am dealing with this annoying testicular pain that just won't go away. it has been months, and I can't figure out what the heck is causing it! I mean, I went to the doc and they ran some tests, but everything came back normal. And honestly, it just makes me worry more. Like, can exercise cause testicular pain? I do work out a lot, and I keep thinking maybe I pulled something or overdid it and now I’m stuck with this pain. Sometimes it’s sharp, other times just a dull ache, and I can’t even concentrate on my day-to-day stuff!! The weird thing is, I also notice it gets worse when I sit for long periods. Like, what’s the deal with that? Is there like, a natural way to get testicular pain relief or something? I have tried some over-the-counter stuff, but it only helps a bit. Do you guys think maybe dietary changes could help? Like, are there foods or supplements that could ease this? I just want to be normal again and not be constantly aware of this pain! Any insight would be super helpful; I’m just feeling kinda lost here!
