It actually is around 2/10 in continuous pain.

This sounds more like it.

I'm doing better the boys are going down the left is about twice the size of normal and has a big hard mass in the one side the right is still about 4 times normal size and is rock hard and pulled up tight in the sack I still have some discomfort and take something for it but it's been 9 days and I used 30 persent calcium chloride dihydrate resurch grade and injected 1.5 ml each side

I have a urologist appointment Wednesday and am going to ask him if he would remove them telling him about how I have been suffering daily since my early 20's and how it's just getting worse and this time I can't do it anymore now that I am 52 something has to be done.

Quick 36 hour update:

Swelling is still around 150%.

Pain is 3/10 without painkillers, but 400mg Ibuprofen and 1000mg Paracetamol (equivalent of 2 Tylenol) helps alot.

It's pretty unusual to still have so much swelling after nine days, but it sounds like the 30% solution achieved total destruction.

Another quick update:

Pain got worse, swelling increased to nearly double the original size.

The chord is now also swollen, which may be the cause for the increased pain.

I hope it will get better soon.

The pain almost always lasts exactly three days. Not sure why, but after that period it just goes away. Until that point though it can be hellish and you wonder if you can last (and question "what if the pain doesn't go away").

Experiencing that kind of pain always reminds me to be empathetic to those that seek euthanasia due to chronic pain. When you're young you can almost always expect pain to go away, but if a person had such pain with no hope of it ending I can see it making your life a living hell.

Anyway, hang in there. Usually just around the time when you decide you can't take it any longer, it will go away. And it usually goes away completely -- balls will be hard and numb.

You can

That's what I've been taking. I didn't use ice packs.

Pain is much better today. 1 or 2 out of 10.

2 out of 10 when i'm walking around.

I hope it doesn't get too bad during the day, as I have to work today.
