Getting better
Step 11 of 15
When to get help
When to go to A&E. When to ring us. What to watch for.
Go straight to A&E if:
- Sudden very bad pain in the testicle, with feeling sick or being sick.
- The scrotum swells fast and feels tight.
- You feel feverish and shivery.
- The cut bleeds heavily and pressing for 10 minutes does not stop it.
Call us within a day if:
- The cut is red, hot, or has pus.
- Pain is getting worse after day 3, not better.
- You have a low fever.
- It is hard to wee.
