My testes hang low when I lie down and they become tight when I wake up. Why?

Question

Hi doctor,

I am an 18-year-old male. I believe that I have a testes infection. When I lie down, my testes hang low, and when I do exercise, they become very tight. They also become tight when I wake up in the morning. Sometimes they move from being tight to hang low. I feel uncomfortable. What could this be?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Testicles are very sensitive organs. It is recommended to wear inner wears loosely, and it should not be tight. It has to be free to give enough space and enough aeration to these sensitive organs. When you sleep, do not sleep with your underwear. Have a sleep free of clothing. Do you have any pain or visible swelling? Is there any rash or sores present on the testicles? If not, the scrotum may have some small opening where the testis can hang below the normal area.
