Im going to be straight with my like 16 followers. As a military urologist if scrotal swelling was a vaccine side effect I would be the first to know. No one is more attentive to their testicles than men in the military.

(2,534 posts)My previous dentist in Tucson was a big German guy who looked like the stereotypical Burgomeister. He just needed a pair of lederhosen and a bierstein to complete the look. Hands like hams.
He sold his practice to a female dentist: good-looking, tall and willowy. She could fit both hands in there with an assortment of power tools.
I was happy.

Ask any military medic they will all agree. The "family jewels" or the "boys" were always of great concern.
You just have to shake your head and wait for the next STUPID delusional lies.

As an urgent care NP, Id say ALL men will come running when there is a problem there. No physical in 10 years? Never had lipids checked? No colonoscopy if indicated? But the moment there is a problem with the genitals they are in the clinic

(8,566 posts)The story of the year, a young man, loosely use that title, came to ER with deadly infection, he tried to use a sports ball pump with the pin, to blow up his testicles. I guess to be manly. Nearly died, lost a ball to infection. Just think, all he needed was a free vaccine against Covid. I guarantee he is a trumper, and would never allow an injection putting unknowns into his temple of a body. When women speak of the importance of size, I am guessing its not the balls that they speak of. I may be wrong.

(8,566 posts)In this same county, 30 years ago way up a rural road, there was a major bust of a home performing testicular transplants with nuptials. Medal balls. No medical degrees where involved. Back woods as it gets. That same stretch of road, lots of homes, ALL fly Trump flags and Dont Tread on Me. FreeDumb. Keep gubment away from our balls.

(8,566 posts)My daughters 5th grade class had a field trip one day to the court house. They took them to expose them to the court and a trial situation. Faculty did not realize the particular trial in session. They had to quickly leave after the Bailiff told them this may NOT be the teaching moment you think. But the news was so big, her and her friends knew why they were shuffled out. Yea, we were famous for a day or so.

I'm absolutely dying of curiosity but can't figure out what to search under to find it.

(8,566 posts)Early to mid nineties. Up Allens Creek Road. 2 main defendants, but if I remember it was more than those guys. I will try to find a key word or 2 that may help search it.

(12,536 posts)FYI Doc, all of us men are extremely attentive to our testicles -- and things appurtenant thereof, i.e., the penis.
