Brief Answer:
Please visit your nearest emergency room immediately.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

Sorry to hear about your painful left testicle. Pain in the testicle is an emergency. If there is acute onset pain in your left testicle then it can be due to torsion, infection or trauma.

It is important to consult emergency room doctors and get an emergency ultrasound scan and Doppler done, which will help in the assessment of the appearance and blood flow to the testis. Please visit your nearest emergency room immediately.

Treatment will depend on the confirmation of cause of pain after ultrasound scan.

Hope your query is answered.
Please do write back if you have any doubts.
