Left Testicle/Lower Abdominal Pain

Hi I am a 23 year old male who's recently developed testicle pain. For the past week or so I have experienced pain in my left testicle after lying down for a long period of time. After standing up and walking around the pain noticebly improves. In the last few days I have noticed the pain starting to radiate to my lower left abdomin. I dont seem to have any lumps on my testicles. Does anyone know what this could be?

Thanks.

Interesting, I play a lot of disc golf and this is happening to me.  It seems like sometimes the glands up into the abdomen region also hurt, but the most scary part is the shrinkage of the testicle.  I have HPV as well, and have seen pre cancerous growths in my throat.  I believe I have a high risk strain.  I know it has moved through my sexual systems, so I have been concerned that the HPV is linked to the oddities in my left testicle.  The pain is always dull, even in my lymph nodes, and only on the left side.  I will certainly be trying a jock strap in the future though although I never suspected this was being cause by them flopping during disc golf.  If that was the case, why only one side, and why the lymph nodes above?

Have the same prob went to eurologist said it was that epididymis infection. Apparently if pain is there then its not cancer or tumor? I had an intra Venus shot of antibiotics yesterday and on doxicyclin anti biodics, and Norman panadiene for the pain I'll update in 2 weeks time to adv of outcome

Read what this guy has said.  I have had similar issues and have used similar remedies which has significantly reduced the pain. The tennis ball in a sock against the wall works great for this issue and other back and shoulder pain. I purchased a book called Trigger Point Therapy on Amazon.com.  Although you are feeling pain in the groin, it is likely referred pain from muscles located elsewhere nearby. Massaging trigger points(I.e. muscle knots) on the inner thigh close to groin, butt and hip may help, plus exercising and stretches. Lastly, i purchased and expensive desk chair as well.  I first thought it was prostate, hernia or kidney stone.  However, two urologists and multiple tests said otherwise. I now believe it has to do with years of mountain biking, squats at the gym and/or sitting at my desk with bad posture all day.

Hi there,

Your kidney pain could be a result of the vitamins and boosters you're taking. These are all filtered through the kidneys. Stop taking all the supplements for a week or 10 days and see if the kidney pain clears up.
