Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have developed Testicular Atrophy secondary to injury which you sustained 9 years ago.
Please get your ultrasound Scanning and colour Doppler study of the scrotum done and consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and to confirm the diagnosis.
Further treatment will depend upon the findings of these tests.
