Hello
Thanks for your query ,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have heaviness and dull pain in left leg.

This could be due to infection of either testis or Epididymis or Varicocele.

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis.
3) Ultrasound Scanning of scrotum

In the mean while start taking broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .
