• Is testicle pain after covid normal?

I had a COVID infection 3 weeks ago. Now I have testicle pain. Can COVID cause testicle pain?

Few studies have reported the association of SARS-CoV-2 infection with testicular discomfort and pain. Histological studies have detected orchitis (inflammation of the testis), which could be due to vasculitis (inflammation of vessels) found in patient who died due to multi-organ failure associated with Covid-19. Thank you.

Not likely. But there are plenty of reasons for testicle pain and you should be seen to have it evaluated
