Investigating and managing chronic scrotal pain.

The article presents information on chronic scrotal pain. The generic term scrotal pain syndrome, adopted by both the European Urological Association (EAU) and the International Continence Society, encompasses testicular pain syndrome, post-vasectomy pain syndrome and epididymal pain syndrome. Medically, the condition is defined as persistent or recurrent episodic scrotal pain related with signs suggestive of urinary tract infection or sexual dysfunction without confirmed epididymo-orchitis or other obvious pathology. Treatment options include lifestyle modification, pelvic floor physiotherapy and surgery, among others.
