  • Trauma: Previous injury to the testicles or scrotum, such as a direct blow, can result in persistent pain.
  • Testicular Torsion: Testicular torsion occurs when the spermatic cord twists, cutting off blood flow to the testicle. Even after treatment, some individuals may experience ongoing pain.
  • Varicocele: Enlargement of the veins within the scrotum, known as varicocele, can cause discomfort or pain, particularly when standing or during physical activity.
  • Hernia: Inguinal hernias, where abdominal contents protrude through a weak spot in the groin muscles, may lead to chronic groin or testicular pain..
