Motorbike rider, 48, ruptured his TESTICLE after losing control and ploughing into a wall - Daily Mail

An American man was left with a ruptured testicle after he lost control of his motorbike and ploughed into a wall.

The 48-year-old, from New Jersey, went to hospital later that afternoon after his right testicle became so swollen he couldn't sit down without suffering excruciating pain.

Medics who examined the man's right testicle found it was unusually hard and caused pain when touched. .

An ultrasound scan found the testicle had ruptured causing blood to pool inside the tissue from the artery that normally fed the reproductive organ. .

A motorcycle accident in states left one American with a ruptured testicle and caused blood to pool inside his scrotum.

Sudden, severe testicle pain can be caused by twisting of the testicle, called testicular torsion.

Less serious causes of testicle pain can include: an infection, physical injury, a hernia, a build up of fluid and swollen veins. 

This man left hospital the next day reporting no pain or swelling in his right testicle.
