Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
It is not likely that the testis can give rise to such an excruciating pain that the patient has to decide for castration.
This is never done for pain.
The simple procedure for such a pain is to undergo a small surgery to do denervation of the area. This is done through an approach via inguinal area.
He will be absolutely fine with this procedure.
