Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing in.

Testicular pain is one of the common symptoms among men. It is usually caused by tight muscles in your hips pulling on the nerves that go from your tailbone to your scrotum. However there are other causes such as testicular torsion (an emergency condition); epididymitis (inflammation of Epididymis); orchitis (inflammation of testicle); renal stone and tumor can be associated.

It is essential that we rule out the possibilities one by one to understand the cause and treatment. I would like to know whether -
Do you experience pain from loin to groin area?
Any lump or mass felt in testicle?
Any history of viral mumps infection?
Any pain associated with burning micturition?

Once I have these answers, I would be able to comment on it better.

Regards
