He somehow believes his balls got "crushed" during the whole thing, Apparently one guy took his balls in his hand and squeezed very hard.The functioning of his penis and testicles is very normal to me, he has no problems what so ever with erections and ejaculation and all that.Is it possible that he could be infertile? what are the chances of his balls being "crushed" and being infertile, can the balls really get crushed? Is he just worried and how hard must you hit someone there for them to actually be infertile?Btw he doesn't want to go check, so thats out of the question.Thanx xx

I think, importantly, he might be suffering from an emotional reaction and anxiety related to the terrible assault itself, and projected that angst on a fear of infertility, without even realizing it. Sounds like a traumatic experience. Poor guy.

There is a small chance that damage has been done. But there is also just as much chance that he is fine and will have no problem having kids.
Use condoms at all times just in case.
As long as you are protected then it won't really be a problem till you want to conceive. If you decide to try for a baby and nothing happens then you can make him head to the doctor then.
Good Luck!! xx
