Dear Mr XXXX
Any acute onset of pain in testis , it is important to rule out Torsion of testis. In your case normal Ultrasound is very reassuring, the likely cause is to be Epididymo-orhitis.
As you are having pain in right scrotum too, I would suggest Doppler scanning of both testis to rule out Torsion. Kindly consult Surgeon at earliest for further clinical assessment.
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Take Care
