The spermatic cord block is a nerve block that works much the same way a nerve block for back pain works. Lets say you have something that is causing the pain, and the nerves tell your spine that theres pain there, Geltzeiler explains.
Apart from testicular torsion, the spermatic cord is also prone to the risks of herniation. A hernia â a bulge of organs or tissue through a weak spot in the abdominal wall â can impinge upon (constrict) the cord, resulting in its malfunctioning.
