I did a search engine search and found 17000 articles on testicle torsion.

To summarise, it is a condition where either the testicles rotate to each other(aka left ball become right ball) or that they turn about themselves, thereby cutting off the blood supply. ball then dies.

And it is not rare.

Also, in 30% of these cases, the testicle has to be removed. Without balls, not only no children but no male hormones, so loss of sex drive etc.

Usually these r caused when testicles roam freely, then a sudden turning occurs, aka, if we turn in bed.

but don't wear...more comfortable.....not fair....girls don't wear...haiz....THEY GOT NO BALLS!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

Interesting discovery indeed, Bro.. Thanks.

Seems like a freak condition that if suay suay happens, it happens.. does wearing underwear really help if ur whole body weight leans in a wrong manner? What abt boxer shorts which are quite loose anyway?

Personally, i think wearing underwear may not lower the chances of this condition by much, but it's just my gut feel there and u may be right..

Then better warn the millions out there who wear boxer shorts or nothing at all to bed every night! :eek:

otherwise, i still prefer to keep them loose and cool, like mother nature intended them to be ;)

Cheers

Interesting and informative articles, thecas. Thanks for posting.

However, I am puzzled by the title of your thread... the articles do not advise that men wear underwear when sleeping or did I miss out the relevant portions?

Would appreciate if you will enlighten me on this issue as I have been wearing boxer shorts to sleep for the past few years and before that, used to wear shorts or pyjamas without underwear since my chidhood. :cool:

No idea..just quoting information sources..lucky havent happened to me yet. :)

In prisons they dun wear undies? u were behind bars before? coz saw once episode of true files n got female guards inside(the one where the female guard was held as hostage). so if male zhao geng female pai say buay..

I correct though, there r 19000++ sites, not just 17000.

The underwear thing is taken from a medical book i have. It was published in 1970, yet torsion is already mentioned in it. To prevent it says to wear either briefs or something called jock strap(any idea wat this is?)

Logically it is correct too..if the balls bounce here bounce there, by probability sooner or later the soft cords will twist one rite? (The cords are very soft)

But good news is that if you can go to a hospital within 6 hrs, usually u can save your ball. But this also mean you can go to sleep a man and wake up to be an eunuch (assuming sleep 8 hrs).

A solution, if u find briefs warm, is to wear just briefs and no pants.

Cheers

Thanks bro, this is certainly food for thought.

I think a jock strap is what some athletes wear in contact sports.. very snug and tight.

cheers!

[KoLianTai]

Hmmm, i also dun wear when i dun slp, but i think bros here are safe? Coz we are a horny bunch and our testis are already trained with stress-test ^^

Anyway nice discovery... it's kinda scary to know that will happen

This web sight says mainly people below 30 years old will kena. and also mainly between 12 to 18 years old. I think most bros here past that age liao. But, better to be safe than sorri!

[JackieChan]

but where got say anythin abt wearin underwear. sounds like a freakish accident tt can well happen wif or without underwear. in fact, the causes and symptoms shown here can still occur even if wearin underwear, if u read closer n think bout it. i wear boxers since the days i can hv an erection n i m veri comfortable wif it. nonetheless, i will need to lose some weight else i will crush my own balls :eek:

[FireKuku]

Causes of Testicle Torsion

- Congenital anomaly; bell clapper deformity
- Undescended testicle
- Sexual arousal and/or activity
- Trauma
- Exercise
- Active cremasteric reflex
- Cold weather


Testicle Torsion only happens when your balls rotate 720% that means 2 full rounds, so to speak in layman terms...

wear boxer better let the ballz and dicky breath :D

Actually if u want juz wear briefs without any pants on. comfortable enuf.

Up 2 u tho..its ya ballz :)

As I mentioned I read the underwear part from a book.

The previous site might not hav mentioned undies but it is coz pple simply assume others will wear them. like ,say, 'wearing a shirt and a pants will reduce the risk of scabies transmission'(less skin to skin contact) wont be mentioned because it is simply assumed dat pple will wear them.

[JackieChan]

reading thru, still, my sense is tt wearin underwear or not won't make much of a difference.. boxers is fine enough for singapore's hot and humid weather. personal choice :p

[thecas]

Me bringing this thread up coz it applies to all guys

One most absurd ad on male underwear. The new 'intelligent' underwear???!!! increase your sexual prowess and the whole loadtruck of shit. :confused:

http://www.thermoflowproducts.com/mensunderwear.html

Wonder if TV media is still around? Sure reminds me of those too-good-to-be true claims. Incidentally, pump-up and superfuel max, among others were sued big time. I wont be surprised if someone is going to market this wonder and capitalise on bros.

I will stick to my generic cialis.

i attended the launch of Bio-Masculine last night, and 2000 sets were sold out that I have to place orders.

It's a pad that does from cleasing and killing all baterias etc, outside your groin area, clears all urinary track problems, clears all prostate problems, clears whatever virus, baterias, fungi, etc.., clears sexual dysfunction, and increase secndary growth to the male penis.

Don't want to talk too much about it here as don't want to be seem advertising but anyone interested can PM for info.

[xabi]

[downing]

ya think its safer to wear an underwear when sleeping i mean who knows maybe some ants will crawl ur didi n bite it. haha

[JackieChan]

haha ... yeah right.. maybe the dog might give us a BBBJ too.

Though it would be great if we truly have a live case who can stand up and attest and prove tt wearing or not wearing underwear alone makes a difference to him :D

[OysterLover]

but tot there r reports are there that wearin undies too long also will cramp up your balls ?? i been sleepin naked for the longest time oredi .. i dun wanna lose my balls !

[Big Sexy]

hahaha..me too....i have not wear a underwear since about 15 years ago.. U know what.. now when i wear one.. when i walk... i walk like a duck..

I hate wearing underwear..


since 1992.. i havent wear any underwear till now.. high risk?

[thecas]

Yo, sureprisingly even this month's edition of EZY Health talks about testicular tortion.

This magazine can be obtained from the counter of Guardian pharmacies[Dunno need to buy a certain amount first or not]

In it it mentions it can happen while sleeping and one risk factor is loose balls.

[yahrite]

oh... this is interesting... how did u found out and how true it is? :o

[viewsonic]

This is interesting..... I onli heard from people that wearing tight jean n underwear will causes injury to the balls.......... :)

[mika14]

Wow...

Riding motorcycle for prolong periods can also damage your balls, from the posture and the heat...

[bLuRbEnG]
