Maybe you need to test-fire the rocket.

Or flick the other nut, so the first one won't feel like it hurts so bad.

Have you had a urine infection lately, or not been drinking enough for a few days (very strong urine is the clue). Or had unprotected sex?

You might be starting epididymitis/orchitis.

The hurts like demon buggery once it comes on, and needs sorting out immediately, so go see a doctor.

If it does come on, you'll have balls like grapefruits, but any pleasure this might bring will be offset by the tearing, screaming agony.

You probably have a condition called prostatitis.
If so, it's not cancer and it doesn't increase your risk of prostate cancer.

Go to your doctor, he'll give you some pills and it'll go away.

I wouldn't worry about it, its just your balls, not like you use them.

I had a testicular torsion (twisted testicle) when I was 10 or 11 years old. There are supposed to be some ligaments or something to keep your testicles from rotating too far, but sometimes, for whatever reason, those fail. If this happens, your testicle can rotate too far and the blood supply to it (as well as the tubes leading from it) can be pinched shut as they become twisted. When this happened to me, my testicle swelled to about twice its size and I had a constant low stomach pain like you get when you have just been kicked in the nuts. This is nothing to fool with. If this is what you have, and it's not corrected soon enough, you may lose your testicle. When I had it, I was in such pain that there was no question about going to the doctor, so I have a feeling that this is probably not what you have, but it's better to be safe than sorry. (I've heard of some people having it where it wasn't as painful as mine was. Perhaps, sometimes, the blood supply isn't completely cut off or something?)

The other big possibility that comes to mind is epididymitis (inflammation of the epididymis). I've never had this but I've heard it can get pretty painful if not taken care of.

Does anything feel either swollen or out of place?

In any case, don't screw around. See a doctor.

I think it's safe to say that you've had more than your share of genital-related woes,sir.

This thread is kinda funny, cause last night I was at a p*ker game, and this guy's kid was playing there (he is a great poker player). He had to stay home from school for a week cause he got hit in the nuts really hard playing sports. Everyone was making 'balls' jokes the whole time.

Ok this has nothing to do with the topic so I will shut up now.

Maybe you should ask a doctor that.
