Suggest Treatment For Radiating Pain Going Down In The Left Leg

Posted on Tue, 21 Jul 2015

Question: My grandson, 22 years old, has had discomfort in one testicle over the last year. He was raised on a ranch, worked as a hunting guide, consequently many years in the saddle. No evidence of anything serious as the result of an MRI a while back, but now has (what sounds like) nerve pain down the left leg. Just trying to help him figure out what kind of specialist he should see here in Bend, Oregon?

Brief Answer:
I need more details on this pain?

Detailed Answer:
Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Radiating pain going down in the left leg, with this history suggests either he has a nerve impingement and a nerve pain OR he has a vascular blood supply problem and has the pain. Both have different outcomes and different specialists deal with that there in Oregon.

I need to know more about pain. It remains all time or comes and go?
What triggers it? What relieves it? Any association with walking, running?

Also tell me what is the status of discomfort in the testes right now? Is it still there or it is resolved?

I am still in my office, waiting for the answers about pain and testicular discomfort. I will get back to you in no time.

Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. Let me know if you have any further clinical concerns. I will be happy to get back to you shortly. If satisfied here, please give a five star rating and don't forget to close the discussion.

Regards!
