What causes lump under my testicles when suffering from lower back pain?
human
Hi, I have recently been having some lower back pains that seem to be more towards my left lower back. The pains shoot down my left leg and make it somewhat difficult to walk. Consequently, ever since this started, I have notice sort of an uncomfortable feeling around my left testicle. This morning in the shower, I was feeling around down there and felt a lump under my testicles maybe the size of a dime or so. I don t truly know if these pains are linked or not... but our work is in the process of changing insurance carriers, so I have put off going to a doctor. Any clue what it might be? Are these pains linked or just a coincidence? Thank you in advance for your help/advice.

helloThe pain doesn't seem to be related to the issue below testicle. The lump in left testicle could be a Varicocele , generally a harmless dilatation of testicular veins . If it start giving trouble like infertility or slight pain, surgical correction is the only remedy.DR SAATIISH JHUNTRRAA
