>>1016851It's a structural thing. Your balls should have anchors to prevent rotation. Some people don't have those anchors functioning well, so a trauma to the area could cause a torsion. It's worth noting it's much more likely to happen in your teens than later in life, so you should worry less as time goes on.
What you need to realize is that treatment is time sensitive and that medical care must be received posthaste. If you feel bad pain in your lower abdomen, radiating from your balls (not necessarily feeling it in the balls, but you might feel a correlation between the balls' condition and the level of pain), and that pain won't go away, you might need to seek help. It's a terrible pain that doesn't go away, doesn't ease, it makes you throw up and prevents you from sleeping.
If you get it treated within the first 10 hours, you sound be fine, probably. If you approach 12 hours, there might be irreparable damage and risk of having the testicle removed.
Unlike what
>>1017047 said, torsion isn't solved exclusively with surgery. Many people experience torsion without realizing, because the testicle can rotate back. The doctor might try to rotate it by smushing your ball sack, but it doesn't always work. But yeah, surgery. They cut the scrotum, rotate it back, check blood flow, remove or stitch the testicle in place depending on its condition, they stitch the other one in place as well, then close the cut.
>>1017042Probably, yeah. Childbirth is also accompanied by a bunch of natural painkillers, and obviously it's not bad enough to prevent women from wanting more babies, or from having drugless births. The pain of testicular torsion is millions of years of natural selection crashing down on you to clearly tell you that this current state is endangeringo your ability to reproduce.
