Abdominal Pain Radiating To Back Of Buttocks, Testicular Hurts, Appendix Removed. Treatment?

My husband has pain in his lower left abdomen. Radiates to the lower left back at top of buttocks. Left Testicle hurts, too. Can't decide whether he should see a doc or leave it go for a few days. Son's wedding next weekend so he wants to wait. This has been building over 3 days and Advil doesn't hit it. He lifted cases of paper and wonders if that caused it. Not painful to the touch; no hard masses or obvious bulges. Bowel movements normal. No fever. Appendix removed 40 years ago at age 16. We eat healthy with a very balanced diet. Thanks for your recommendation as to whether we can wait a few days.

Hi,
From history it seems that your husband might be having infection in his genital tract called acute Epididimo-orchitis.
There is also a possibility of having indirect inguinal hernia.
Do not wait till your son's wedding.
Consult surgeon and get examined.
Physical examination will give precise clue regarding his problem.
Ok and take care.
