Screen 5 of 16

I've seen the Doctor with regard to testicular abnormalities so i'm not bashville about asking her/him about it, i just wouldn't know how to explain that the pain only comes after extreme arousal and denial practiced over several days, as i wouldn't expect a doctor to understand why a couple would practice such a lifestyle voluntarily nor would i relish trying to explain it.

I just wanted to know if you had heard of this before, and if you had any words of advice about dealing with it.

A. Blue balls is very common among men. I cannot make a diagnosis about your situation since I am not a medical Doctor. If you have only experienced this discomfort on a couple of occasions when you are aroused and denied, then I wouldn't worry too much about it.

When a man becomes sexually aroused, blood flows into his penis阴茎 — the male sex organ and testicles (or balls). If he ejaculates, the blood flows out of his genitals more quickly than if he does not ejaculate. The discomfort men can feel when they have been sexually aroused but have not ejaculated is sometimes called "Blue Balls".
