For the past week, I have been experience discomfort and soreness in my left testicle. I ve also been experiencing discomfort in the left side of my groin, and on the left side of my pubic mound. The discomfort is becoming progressively worse. What may be the cause of this discomfort, and should I take this as a medical emergency, and go to the hospital?

Hello
Thanks fr query,
Discomfort in left testicle and groin is likely to be due to infection of the either Epididymis or Testicle .
You need to consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical examination and Ultrasound Scanning of scrotum to confirm the diagnosis.
You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.
Ensure to drink more water.
