It sounds like it's healing. But it's not good at all that this is happening in schools.

"Cupcheck Season" --HELP PLEASE
-
Well something weird just made my attention...there is this like line that runs from the back center of your testicles to the underside of your penis, and that part on the testicle is slightly enlarged, but it went down from yesterday. Hmmmm.How long should this take to heal?
-
That line is the raphe - a seam where your scrotum was joined together when you were a foetus. It's always been there, though perhaps it's a little more obvious at the moment with the swelling.It should be a matter of days rather than weeks.
-
Turns out the blood flow died to the testical. It was removed less than 48 hours ago.
-
You had your testicle removed??????? Holy shit!!!
-
Time to bring in the lawyers on the school, I think.And it's a lesson to us, too, that this sort of injury requires an immediate medical assessment.
-
OMG R U SERIOUS???? WHOA that's terrible! Wow that must really, REALLY suck.

I have had my nut swollen to the size of a grapefruit after a motorcycle wreck and kicked in them repeatedly, had thenm caught under my leg loop in an 80 foot fall climbing and never have I had anything as serious as that happen to me.If you were my kid, my attorney would be contacting the school and ffthe little fuck that did it would be charged with assault thru the police and I would be sueing.I know you can sue the school for not providing protection for students. Many schools in my area have been sued over hazing incidents and so far not a single school has won in court. You can also sue the peope who did it. Not them directly because they ar under 18 but you can sue the parnts over damages and hospital bills and any attorny wil throw in the pain and suffering and mental anguish for a young boy to lose a nut.You and your parents get to do what you decide to do but if you were my son there would be hell to pay for all involved.Thanks for the updat though, I had no idea anything as serious as this could come from that
-
I know you mentioned that the swelling was going on too long and he should see a doctor, Inelegible, but he did come back and say the swelling was way down and feeling better. I feel terrible about this.
-
I saw four doctors, and all but the last thought it was fine, until the last ordered an ultrasound. The swelling was actually getting worse in the cannon sense; more blood was flowing through, but because the testicle itself was marbeling and decreasing in size rather quickly, the fluid was taking up that space.
As for suing, I sustained other injuries as well that week, and the doctor said it could have been any one of them.
-
I sustained other injuries as well that week, and the doctor said it could have been any one of them. Could you please elaborate? This whole thing is rather upsetting and could be a learning experience us all.
-
In reply to: As for suing, I sustained other injuries as well that week, and the doctor said it could have been any one of them While it makes it harder to do so I would still push it thru.you can sue them all collectivly and let a judge decide not tomention you could still sue the school, sometimes it takes drastic action like that for them to get involved and put an end to it once and for all.When you say other injuries, do you mean other injrys ? or do you mean the same injury inflicted by more then one person at several different times on seperate occasions?
-
Basically I got hit by a basketball in the left testicle while playing a pickup game off campus, so as far as which injury did it, it could have been that, or if it WAS a torsion, which the doctor didnt think it was but it could be, it could have been a 100% random occurence.Sad thing was that there was no swelling or pain at all the first day, so the 4-8 hour window for saving that testicle was pretty much out from the beginning.
-
First off,
THAT is FUCKE UP
Im going to pull my cup out form the closet and wear it all the time from now on! *exaduration* I never knew a shot to the sack could cause a loss of a nut, thats horrible!.
second, I would still talk to an attorney and see what he says, thats his job and hes paid to know the ins an outs of the law and how to apply it not to mention he went to school for a hell of a long time to get that job.
You need to make the shool aware of this no matter what and pressure them to take serious action against anyone performing a cup check test.and lastly, don't let it get you down, you still got one, your dick will still work and if anyone gives you shit about it let it go over your head. I would also play the sympathy car with girls :laughing: but thats because Im a bastard and use every advantage I could find when i was dating.
-
I feel upset also, sdp. I wasn't intending to blame you in any way - I felt bad about the advice I gave.I suppose what the first three doctors said shows that this was unexpected; but the fact that it happened shows that it can.
-
No No.. I didn't even take it that way. The whole thing was a surprise. I just feel upset that I/we didn't push him more to get it looked at earlier. Maybe it would have been futile in the end, but who knows.

The two of you seemed to of missed one thing.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sad thing was that there was no swelling or pain at all the first day, so the 4-8 hour window for saving that testicle was pretty much out from the beginning--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------by the time he posted, this wa already decided ( assuming I have my timeline right in my head and I may well not )I dont think either of you shoud be feeling guitly about it.Besides your both men, how many times you been busted in the sack and nothing ever happened after but some sore nuts and some sweing for a little bit?you two are not trained to deal with this and 3 docs who are trained missed it too.Something to remeber in the future certainly but I can find a reason for anyone here to feel guilty about it.
-
Yes but when he originally posted:This is my second day of injury, and it still hurts, though not as much. He still had pain and swelling 3 days after he posted making it 5 days post-injury and he hadn't seen a doctor about it.
-
True, and I read that the first time.Im basing my opinion on his other post after it was done.the 4-8 hour window for saving that testicle was pretty much out from the beginningWhen he first posted it was well after the 4 to 8 hour window he spoke of.Im assuming that time frame was information he gleemed from the Doc who did the ultra sound that led to the surgery.Like I said, shocked ? damn straight, but I can find no reason for you guys to feel guiltf.
