Pressure behind left testicle.

For over ten years now, I've had this mild pain or feeling of pressure behind my left testicle. I know I should've spoken to a doctor about this sooner, but it comes and goes and has never been real bad, though lately it's gotten a little worse. I'm not sure, but I think my epidydimis is swollen and inflamed, due to rough handling of my scrotum once during masturbation. Of course, the pain itself is an issue, but the biggest concern is that it interferes with my sex drive. Can any physicians out there tell me if my self-diagnosis sounds correct, and if there's anything a doctor might be able to do about it?

Hi Whitey, So was the rough handling by a women then? sounds like your have pulled a tendon, unless you do heavy work, I think this should have settled down my now, its a bit like a strain by the sound of it, as men we will do silly things like lifting heavy weights, or from awkward angels, but it sounds like yours, if you keep straining it then it wont go away, then you may be getting into trust country.
Do hope this helps.
Good luck

A urologist should examine you and tell you what your options are.  

This is not a terribly uncommon problem.  Urologists check this all the time.
