Penis and Testicle Disorders

The testicles are the pair of organs that sit in the sac below a man's penis. The epididymis is the coiled tube on top of each testicle where sperm are moved from the testicle and stored. Doctors use the term "itis" to mean that an organ is inflamed. For example, orchitis means inflammation of the testicle.
