Brief Answer:
Involuntary spasmodic contraction

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.

This can occur due to sudden involuntary spasmodic contractions of muscles of that area.

This usually occurs due to improper posture and exercise.

I would like to know a few more details:

1.Any burning or blood in urine?
2.Any pain persisting now?
3.Any hernia or hydrocele do you have?
4.Any medication if you have taken please mention?

This is my best advice for you based on available details. If you have any further query please ask me and revert with the asked details for a better help.
Stay Healthy.

No blood in urine,no medication, no hernia that I am aware of. Started feeling discomfort yesterday in the back of the scrotum. It returned today whilst sitting down having a coffee and it feels uncomfortable when walking. I am going to see my family doctor today.

Brief Answer:
Detail follows.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
It seems only a muscular spasm, but it is important to rule out any local cause like Torsion of tested, Hernia, etc.
So, get it examined by your doctor, if everything is fine then you simply start taking precaution during exercise like wearing a supporter and not to do vigorous exercises.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
