There is an issue I am experiencing. I'm almost always using my laptop on my lap. When the system is running hot, I get very noticeable throbbing pain (few seconds on, few seconds off, etc) in my left testicle (only the left). This pain also radiates into the pelvis area above it.

So I am wondering what exactly is causing the pain. Obviously heat is bad so I know that's a trigger. However, I am also wondering if radiation is an additional concern because I am using a wireless connection. I ask this because even when the system is running at cooler temperatures I feel the pain only not as intense as with heat.

I have even placed a large, folded pillow between me and the laptop. This would eliminate the issue of heat, but not radiation afaik. There is obviously much debate about whether or not laptop emits dangerous radiation, so I don't know what to think.

1) What are the long-term effects of testicular heat?
2) How about testicular radiation?
3) What is the best way to prevent this while using it on your lap (such as a special laptop platform that filters radiation/heat)? If this works please recommend some specific ones.
 
youre burning your balls and youre confused why it hurts? i dont get it...

as for radiation and such, probably really low amounts. but i suppose over time it could fuck you up. who knows. thats what they say bout phones. everything gives you cancer.
 
I use a lapdesk and notice no testicle pain, which I am unfortunately prone to...
 
Apparently this can happen with laptops. I don't own one but I just did a quick search and other men have the same issues with their balls and using a laptop.

Why not just put it on a desk while you're at home?
