Could Tingling In Right Leg, Heavy Testicle, Pain Behind Knee After Taking Amoxicillin Course Suggest Varicocele?

26 year old male. Evaluated by Urologist to have varicocele. Symptoms started to appear after finishing Amoxicillin course (5 days 3x a day). Now I'm experiencing tingling sensation on right leg accompanied by heaviness on right testicle, with episodes of pain behind the knee going all the way down foot. Sometimes present on both legs.

Hello
Thanks for query .
You have been diagnosed to have Varicocele and your Dr prescribed Amoxicillinn for five days .

You have noticed pain in in Rt leg and heaviness in testicle and pain behind knee joint .

The pain in leg and behind knee joint is a referred pain along the innervation of Genito Femoral nerve and could be mostly due to heaviness of the testicle or Varicocele .

You need to take anti inflammatory medicine like Diclofenac twice daily .
.
Using scrotal support to prevent sagging of scrotum and testicle will reduce hanging of testicle there by help to reduce pain .
