Apparently (and this is from memory, so caveat emptor) when young the balls can be uneven. During puberty, one might say "Oh no! I must become even!" and twist up on itself.
This is resovled (at least in my case) with a local anesthetic and manual untwisting. Followed by a procedure where they sew your balls to your sack so they can't try it again.
Eek! Reminds me of a horrifying story I read of a single mother who's 15 year old son had this. She took him to the ER and they said it was gas and to leave. He ended up needing his dead testicle removed.
Fucking scared me. That poor mom. That poor kid. 😢
But if you want to know it’s because of an anatomical variant / birth defect where the testis is not fixed to the adjacent membrane called the tunica vaginalis.
The "they want to be even" explanation is what I remeber being told by the urologist who untwisted me. I was, to be fair, young and in pain, so I don't know that I remember clearly.
(Also, it was around 25-30 years ago, so I get to be wrong about this.)
I had this as a teenager. Would not recommend.
How did it occur and how did it resolve?

Your testes are actually a different heights your whole life.
I think he was joking :)

Yeah! No one has an even pair of balls, but I guess too uneven can lead to medical issues
Agreed. I explained more in a sibling comment, but this always confused me...
The Sith, the Jedi
Does this answer your question?
Same here. 4/10, at most. Not a good time.
Damnit, well there's my weekend, do you recommend colon cancer?
Second. Awful. It hurt ao bad.
I have twisted your testicle, pray I don't twist it further...
Harder, daddy
That's a medical reason for an oriechtomy right there, officer.
(DON'T)
Orchiectomy* or orchidectomy
Or in other words blueballectomy
Just make sure to wait 48 hours first so it's unrecoverable...

This needs to be NSFW. I’m sitting with my legs crossed here.
This got me laughing hysterically in the morning thanks.
I am Larry, evil Larry, may I see your testes?
For a price. One drugs, please.
