To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download TESTICULAR PAIN - caused by hernia I had 3 TURP prostate operations last year. (2 in August, 1 in Dec. 2006) After the last one, I had very pronounced testicular pain in January. I detailed this to my urologist who did a urine test and examination of fluid after a “prostate massage”—(no that doesn’t involve soft music and scented candles)…He diagnosed infection and gave me a prescription. I still had the very persistent pain, eventually so bad that I awakened in the night with it. When I again contacted him about the problem, I was asked to come in the next day. Only then did he check for a hernia and it turned out that was the cause of all the pain. Had I been checked earlier for that, weeks of suffering could have been avoided. If you have VERY severe testicular pain and you are not also checked for a hernia–ask for that to be done…One week from the diagnosis (February 14), I had laproscopic hernia repair and the pain issue was resolved.
