Why Does Getting Hit In The testicles Hurt So Much? (Question People Ask) by Joel3(m): 9:55pm On Jan 20, 2015
first the testicles is organ just like the heart and kidney. But its stays outside the body.


More than any other bodily injury, getting
hit in the testicles is probably what every
man dreads most. Of all the soft, fleshy spots
on the human body, none register the same
kind of incapacitating, end-of-the-world
pain as the family jewels. What causes such inconceivable pain?

Well, for starters, a shot to the balls is just like any other physical strike to the body: because of nerves, it’s gonna hurt. Unlike most other parts of your body, though, your scrotum lacks protection in the form of bones, large muscle mass, and fat.

The testes are just wee little glands, and they’re going to absorb the
whole force of the blow all on their own. Another thing that makes a ball shot so
painful is the same thing that makes almost
every other sensation down there so much
fun. Your groin has a ridiculously high
number of sensory nerve endings, and such
generous innervation makes good and bad touches alike very noticeable sensations. And the pain doesn’t just stay down there in
the scrotum.

It insists on radiating
throughout the groin and up into the
abdomen (and, psychically, out to every
other dude standing within a few feet),
leading to a weird stomach ache. This is the work of a phenomenon known as referred
pain, which is when a sensation originating
at one spot travels along a nerve root to
other parts of the body and is perceived as
happening there, too. It’s the same thing
that’s going when you get an ice cream headache. In this case, the pain starts in your balls and travels up the perineal and
pudendal nerves and the spermatic plexus,
which cover real estate in the groin and
abdomen, around the spine and even a little
ways down into the anus, to make it feel
like death has come for most of your lower body.


Location, Location, Location Why is such a sensitive and delicate body
part just hanging there in the open? The
placement of the testicles is inconvenient,
but absolutely necessary. The testes’ job is
to produce sperm, and sperm are very
fragile.

They’re extremely sensitive to high and low temperatures, and must be kept
away from the rest of the body and
relatively exposed to maintain the right
climate. They can handle human body
temps for only one to four hours, or the
average amount of time it takes them to travel through the female reproductive tract
and fertilize an egg. Internal testes or any
type of significant shielding for them would
heat them up too much, too early and make
them drop out of the race well before
reaching the egg, rendering them useless.

The scrotum isn’t just a dumb sack swaying
in the breeze, though. In deference to our
genetic interests, our bodies subconsciously
thermoregulate our balls by flexing the
cremasteric muscle and drawing the
scrotum up closer to the body when it gets too cold and dropping it when it’s hot. This
optimized, on-the-fly sperm storage is
precise enough that each testicle can be
repositioned independent of its twin in
order to get the temperature just right,
explaining their sometimes asymmetrical dangle.
