Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have pain and discomfort in Left Testicle mostly due to Varicocele ..
However this can be confirmed only on clinical examination by a qualified General Surgeon or Urologist

Consult General Surgeon or Urologist for clinical evaluation and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1)Ultrasound Scanning of scrotum
2) Color Doppler study of scrotum.

Further treatment will be decided by him based on results of these test and final diagnosis.

In the mean while you can take pain killers like Brufen twice daily
