Testicular Torsion Treatment in Bangalore | Genesiss Multi-Speciality Hospital

Testicular torsion is a urological emergency in which the spermatic cord twists, cutting off the blood supply to the testicle. This leads to sudden severe pain, swelling, and risk of permanent testicular damage if not treated immediately. At Genesiss Multi-Speciality Hospital, testicular torsion is managed with rapid diagnosis, emergency urology surgery, and prompt post-operative care to maximize testicle survival.

What Is Testicular Torsion?

Testicular torsion occurs when the spermatic cord twists, stopping or significantly reducing blood flow to the testicle. Without urgent treatment, the affected testicle may suffer irreversible damage or loss.

Key Points:

  • Most common in children, teenagers, and young adults
  • Can occur during activity, rest, or even sleep
  • Requires immediate surgical intervention
  • Time-critical condition

When Is Testicular Torsion Treatment Required?

Immediate emergency treatment is required when:

  • Sudden severe pain in one testicle occurs
  • Rapid scrotal swelling develops
  • Pain is associated with nausea or vomiting
  • One testicle appears higher or abnormally positioned
  • Pain does not reduce with rest or medication

⛔ Any delay can result in permanent loss of the testicle.

Symptoms of Testicular Torsion

Symptom Description
Sudden intense testicular pain Often severe and sharp
Scrotal swelling Develops rapidly
Redness or tenderness Affected side
Nausea or vomiting Common associated symptom
Abdominal pain Especially in younger patients

Symptoms usually worsen quickly and should never be ignored.

Common Causes and Risk Factors

Cause / Risk Factor Explanation
Abnormal testicular attachment Allows free rotation (bell-clapper deformity)
Sudden movement or minor injury Can trigger twisting
Puberty and adolescence Higher incidence age group
Cold exposure Causes sudden muscle contraction
Previous torsion Increases recurrence risk

How Doctors Diagnose Testicular Torsion

Diagnosis focuses on speed and accuracy:

  • Immediate physical examination
  • Assessment of pain severity and testicle position
  • Scrotal Doppler ultrasound to assess blood flow (if time permits)
  • Clinical suspicion alone is enough to proceed to surgery

⚠️ Diagnosis should never delay emergency surgery when torsion is suspected.

How Testicular Torsion Is Treated at Genesiss Multi-Speciality Hospital

Testicular torsion requires emergency surgical management.

Treatment Step Purpose
Emergency surgery Untwists the spermatic cord
Blood flow assessment Checks testicle viability
Testicle fixation (orchidopexy) Prevents future torsion
Opposite testicle fixation Prevents torsion on the other side

🔹 Surgery is performed as early as possible to improve testicle survival chances.

What Happens After Testicular Torsion Surgery?

After surgery:

  • Pain gradually reduces
  • Scrotal swelling subsides over time
  • Blood flow is restored if treated early
  • Hospital observation may be required
  • Follow-up ensures healing and testicular function

Recovery After Testicular Torsion Treatment

Recovery depends mainly on how quickly surgery was performed.

Recovery Aspect Details
Pain control Mild to moderate, improves steadily
Activity restriction Temporary, as advised
Scrotal support Often recommended
Return to routine Gradual
Follow-up visits Essential for long-term outcome

✔️ Early treatment offers the best chance for complete recovery.

When Should You Seek Emergency Care?

Seek immediate emergency medical attention if:

  • Sudden testicular pain occurs
  • Pain is severe and persistent
  • Scrotal swelling develops rapidly
  • Nausea or vomiting accompanies pain

🚨 Do not wait or self-medicate — time is critical.
