8. When to Seek Help
Any pain, swelling or change in the appearance of the testicles requires evaluation by a doctor. However, it's also important to seek help if pain in the testicles comes and goes, even if the individual has only one episode. This can indicate intermittent torsion, where the testicles twist and untwist on their own. Experiencing intermittent torsion makes developing full testicular torsion far more likely, as it indicates the testicles can move freely within the scrotum.
