A dull pain in the testicles while walking may be caused by various factors. It could be due to orchitis or epididymitis, inflammatory conditions usually triggered by bacterial or viral infections, which are often accompanied by symptoms such as swelling and pain. Varicocele may also cause a dull ache in the testicles during walking, typically resulting from impaired venous blood flow in the spermatic cord. Additionally, conditions such as testicular torsion, ureteral stones, or urinary tract infections might indirectly lead to testicular pain. It is important to note that when such symptoms occur, prompt medical attention is necessary. A healthcare professional should conduct an examination to determine the exact cause, and treatment should be carried out according to medical advice.
