Experiencing genital pain or swelling can be alarming, signaling anything from common infections to more serious conditions. These symptoms should never be ignored, as prompt medical attention is crucial for effective treatment and peace of mind.
At Menscape Clinic in Bangkok, our expert urologists specialize in discreetly diagnosing and treating all causes of male genital pain and swelling. We provide compassionate, confidential care, ensuring you receive the relief and solutions you need.
Common Causes of Genital Pain & Swelling
Genital pain and swelling can stem from various causes affecting the penis, scrotum, and testicles. Common culprits include:
- Infections: Epididymitis (epididymis inflammation), Orchitis (testicle inflammation), UTIs, and STIs (e.g., Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Herpes). Symptoms can include pain, swelling, redness, discharge, or sores.
- Injuries/Trauma: Direct impact to the groin or scrotum from sports or accidents, causing immediate pain, bruising, and swelling.
- Inflammatory Conditions: Balanitis (penis head inflammation) or Peyronie's Disease (scar tissue in penis causing curved, painful erections).
- Fluid Accumulation: Hydrocele (fluid around testicle) or Spermatocele (epididymis cyst).
- Vascular Issues: Varicocele (enlarged scrotal veins causing dull ache), or Testicular Torsion (twisted testicle cutting off blood supply – a medical emergency).
- Hernias: Inguinal hernias can present with groin/scrotal swelling and discomfort.
An accurate diagnosis by a urology specialist is essential due to this wide range of possibilities.
When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention
While many cases of genital pain or swelling are not emergencies, certain symptoms demand urgent medical care to prevent long-term damage. Seek immediate attention if you experience:
- Sudden, severe testicular pain: A hallmark of testicular torsion, requiring urgent treatment to save the testicle.
- Rapid swelling of the scrotum or penis.
- Fever and chills accompanying genital pain, indicating serious infection.
- Painful urination or blood in urine with genital symptoms.
- Open sores, blisters, or pus-like discharge.
- Severe pain after trauma to the genital area.
Contact Menscape Clinic immediately or seek emergency medical care for these red-flag symptoms.
Diagnosis & Treatment at Menscape Clinic
At Menscape Clinic, diagnosing genital pain and swelling begins with a thorough, compassionate evaluation in a discreet environment:

- Diagnostic Tests:
- Urinalysis/Urine Culture: To detect UTIs or STIs.

Treatment: Based on diagnosis, we create a personalized plan:
- Medications: Antibiotics for infections, anti-inflammatories, or pain relievers.
- Minor Procedures: Drainage of abscesses or cysts.
