Testi Pain w/ small "grain of rice" size lump, Abdominal Pain
by aoutman08, Jul 13, 2008 12:54AM
Doctor,
Thank you in advance for your time and assistance, I am posting this because starting about six hours ago I noticed pain in my right testi that was provoked and made worse by touching the testi, but only if I touched a specific spot on the right testi, please note it start when I was simply sitting there was no trauma or striking, pinching, or pressure put on the testi at the time of or before the pain start or within the last couple months. The pain would not subside, and I tried to ignore it but began to feel nauses, and noticed pain my lower back near the left kidney. Upon a self-examination when I got home, approx five hours ago I noticed that the pain was originating from the front left portion of the right testi, and even the slightest touch to that area was painful, and thats when I noticed the "grain of rice" sized lump on the testi in the area of the pain, now note that its not so much that the lump is what hurts but rather the area around it when touched almost like the area is swollen or tender. I placed ice in a clothe and placed it on the area, and it helped the discomfort to a point but did nothing for the lump and upon removing the discomfort returned to its level before it was iced. When I laid down on my back I noticed a more profound pain in my back flanks where the kidneys are located on both sides, and a slight pulsing in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen when light palpation of the LR Q of the abdomen was performed, along with pain, tenderness, and guarding in both the LR and UR Q of the abdomen. Now I have had the abdominal pain and almost like migranes constantly for the past year or two, and they removed my appendix in September 2007 thinking the ab pain was appendicitis, but the appendix wasnt swollen when removed. The pain subsided for about 2 months and returned with the testi pain and the lump and kidney area pain.
Doctor, whats going on?

It is possible that the pain in the testis is due to a cyst. Further evaluation is necessary. Pain in the back and flanks could be due to a kidney stone. Please schedule an appointment with a urologist at the earliest.
