Hello,

I have been having the same problems lately, and I went to the urologist and had an ultra sound done and they determined that I have varicocele.  This is when the veins become enlarged and blood and not flow properly.  They are recommending surgery, outpatient and recovery is 5 days.  You should get this checked out by a doctor.

Hello,

As there is no swelling or inflammation or redness of the scrotal sacs, so the chances of epidiymitis or orchitis are rare.pain due to torsion comes suddenly and is severe and acute in nature. Moreover it is often accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Pain in varicocele subsides on lying down. So in your case it can be a hernia or a testicular tumor or kidney or ureteric stone.

The final diagnosis can only be made after a thorough physical examination including examination of the abdomen, scrotum, testicles and rectum.

Lab investigations like complete blood examination, urine examination, ultrasound lower abdomen and sometimes a urethral swab will help in diagnosis. Treatment will be started thereafter.

Regds and take care.
