After ejaculation, mild testicular pain may occur, generally due to varicocele or poor personal hygiene. If a patient neglects personal hygiene or has a sexual partner who carries bacterial infection, the testicles may become infected, leading to inflammation. During ejaculation, semen can further irritate the inflamed area, causing pain. In addition, conditions such as orchitis, epididymitis, and cryptorchidism can also cause these symptoms.
