What Causes Left-sided Pain In Leg, Lower Back And Testicle?
Question: I have sharp pain in my left leg, left side of lower back and left testical. Woke up this morning and it was like that. No apparent injury and no swelling at all.
Brief Answer:
Needs MRI spine and doppler of lower limb affected
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you. The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of 2 possible causes.
1 possible cause is a sudden spinal problem resulting in the symptoms. An MRI LS SPINE WITH SCREEN WHOLE OF THE SPINE will be needed for this condition.
2nd possible cause needs doppler of the lower limbs to rule out a possible DVT or block of the artery.
I have assumed you have no sensory symptoms and had no similar complaints before. If the assumption is incorrect, please notify me.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
