Chronic Testicular Pain in Adult Men
Abstract
Past investigations of chronic testicular pain provide a sparse representation of the men with this condition and lack key details to aid our understanding of this important men’s health condition. As a chronic pain syndrome, more research is necessary to understand the phenomenon of chronic testicular pain and the pain experience of these men. This integrative literature review provides a summary of the current state of the science of chronic testicular pain in men, identifies the gaps in our knowledge, and provides recommendations to address this knowledge gap.
