I used to work pathology. One day, we received 2 testicles from the OR, both from young men younger than me. The first one was removed with the listed reason being torsion. It got twisted. Makes sense. Heard of that. The other one was removed for a reason I didn’t really think possible. The poor guy FRACTURED his testicle. I can only imagine the pain he was going through.

In high school I got one kicked back into my body by a wild kick in a soccer game, dude straight punted that thing into my guts. Then it swelled and refused to drop. Almost had to have surgery but it did descend on its own. I’ve had some other serious injuries in life but that, that was a level all its own.

I played lacrosse in highschool with a guy who only had one testicle. He lost it in middle school while playing lacrosse, wasn’t wearing a cup and caught a shot with his crotch. He said the doctors told him it had… “unraveled” and I absolutely hate the image that conjures

I guess I’d always taken balls to be more like a bouncy ball than a ball of yarn, but TIL. Also added “my balls unraveling” to the list of lurking fears.

I don’t have that engine. But holy fuck, I forgot that was even possible. 😨
