Could Mild Discomfort In Scrotum With Pain Between Legs, Possible Swollen Veins Be Due To Lifting Weights?

I have some mild discomfort in my scrotum. The issue is in low region of the scrotum seems to allways be to the left side.

Feels like a vein. I can feel some pain in the area between legs. Where scrotum meets going toward anus. Feeling that area with fingers I can feel veins that may be swollen.

Cold ice under and over scrotum brings relief.

Also when sitting I can feel the swelling.

I have been recently lifting weights.

I have no swelling or lumps in groin area. Nothing near or above penis or near thigh .

I still have regular bowel movements, with no pain.

Problem is now about 5 days.

Thanks

Hi...looks likevyou have got a varicocele of the scrotum....get a dopler scan of the scrotum to confirm the diagnosis...if its that only then it will require surgery for correction as it can lead to infertility...
