You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
2 weeks ago whilst on holiday my son jumped on my left nut. It hurt. I limped about for 3 days then collapsed and ended up in the SRU at Trelisk Hospital in Cornwall for some fairly extensive prodding and scanning.
The pain has gone but I’m left with a haematoma and, subject to the outcome of a further scan, the prospect of not being able to ride a bike again.
So, in this situation what would you give up… the ball or the bikes?
You've already got a son, so the ball.
Ouch! You'll be fine. Nothing will stop you riding for good, you'll just learn some interesting new saddle positions and 'tucking up' manuevres... Get well soon bud
I've had my lefty under the knife and replaced. Don't worry - unless it's now somewhere near your sit bones you'll be ok to ride.
Nose-less saddle?
Yes .
Bet that 'really' hurt at the time .
Hope it works out OK for you .
Ow, I just read some horror stories in the joinery thread, now this.
Someone please start a thread about puppies or sunshine.
Cheers, now concentrating on happy thoughts. Severed fingers and crushed nuts slowly fading away.
I would just ride standing up all the time.
ball off.. no hesitation..
what are you waiting for..!?
can we invoke Godwins law yet...?
Yup, lose the ball. I have a son, and if i was in the same situation it'd be bye bye bollock!
Can I be the first to mention Hitler? (EDIT: Damn you, Brant!)
You don't need two to procreate. So unless your brains are in your bollocks, it's not a difficult decision...
It's a bollock. You've got another one!
Bin it off. In fact, I'll bet you've already made the decision anyway.
Having said that, I'm not trying to sound flippant, but which do you get the most pleasure out of?
2 kids 2 grandkids.......my genes will go forth....... 😀
take my knackers....... 8)
Surely just lop it off?
bejebus.. that's not nice. Hope it works out. If its that badly damaged you might be better off getting rid
hopefully your lad now understands that jumping on the middle bit of blokes isn't a good idea.
ended up in the SRU at Trelisk Hospital
SRU = Swollen Red Undercarriage dep't?
my son jumped on my left nut.It hurtEunuch kidding 😆
I'm married, I had mine removed years ago! 😥
Would you give your left nut to ride a bike?
I nearly did a couple of weeks ago!
Slid down a bank and hit a tree, prising the saddle from it's rails using my left bollock and rolled around on the ground for a while sqealing like a little piggy.
Pissed blood for a couple of days, but still came out of it better than the bike 😕
If your ball is so badly damaged that the scar tissue is going to give you grief get rid, thats why the good lord provided a spare 😆
Ask your missus, she's probably under the impression that they're her property after all... 😉
A friend of mine had one removed some years ago due to cancer and was told that the remaining one would "step it up" and he wouldn't be any worse off. The frequency with which his wife seems to get pregnant would seem to confirm this!
I love puppies. Thanks CFH 😀
The bollock must go. No hesitation. It's only cosmetic nowadays surely?
Take them both off. Just one will upset your balance.
No hesitation. It's only cosmetic nowadays surely?
True. I had plumbing out a couple of years ago. Now they are just for show.
No hesitation. It's only cosmetic nowadays surely?
Well, except they provide hormones.
Look on the bright side, if you go full eunuch you won't lose your hair and you'll grow tits. No need for a wife then, especially when your not horny any more and getting hot flushes everyday.
But yes, I would give up a single bollock. The other would be heavily armoured when I rode. Put some sperm in a bank for future use if needed.
Nobody has mentioned that the weightloss is equivalent to a cheap XTR upgrade????
If I was having a nut off there is no way on gods fine earth I would tell my mates, I would never hear the end of it, if my mate lost a naja I would struggle not to call him Adolf or Womble.
I've just come back off a holiday where I started getting very worrying ball pain and spent a few days thinking about the possibility of having an operation, very scary.
Good luck.
Adolf or Womble.
I had testicular cancer 20 years ago and don't have a left nut anymore, no big deal. Used it as a conversation point when I chatted my future wife up. Had 3 children since. Makes no difference to anything.
Tbh I'd probably give the other one to keep riding, now Ive got my kids, although having non is a much bigger deal apparently.
Just don't ask for a local so you can watch the op. 😯
I'm only off the bike for about 5 months and I think I would give my left ball to be able to walk and ride again.
