Another common piece of ball-trouble is that the tube leading to the testis can get twisted, cutting off blood-flow. The pain apparently escalates into a brutal agony, and the testis can become so damaged that they can rot inside.

This happened to a friend of mine, but luckily a hot nurse was able to massage it better (otherwise it was an op, and possible the chop).
