What Causes Pain In Testicles And Leg?
Question: I had pain in my testicles and leg. I showed a urologist who did a color doppler which showed nothing . The doctor prescribed some medicine and said it will go away slowly. After almost 2 years the pain in testicles continue and there is lot of pain in legs . The pain is mainly in feet and knees wherein I feel that someone is pressing the nerves. I feel like there is some pain in the veins itself in both the legs. I even had a full body MRI scan and full body checkup done which showed nothing. I am having burning and tingling pain in all my legs. Similar pain I have sometimes in my left palm which has originated recently.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback, fast and swift.
Young man- sitting job as manager Legal in Asian pains - has a seizure disorder in 2010 - Fortis XXXXXXX - related tests said to be normal - Pain in the legs from groin area till feet - irregular- no activity known to increase the pain - feeling that the nerve is pulling and sometimes it is burning sensation.
Pain in the testis mainly near groin - and is a pressure like pain. Urologist rules out any problem in the testicles.
**
With the history of Seizure in 2010 and leg pains which can not be fit into a particular syndrome, I would think about the nervous system as the main cause. This can be affection of the central nervous system or spinal level problem causing referred pains in the lower limbs.
** One more review as a second opinion of another senior-most Neurologist in XXXXXXX with review of the investigations is needed so by him is most welcome.
If there is a problem, there has to be a cause, hence go for a second opinion and battery of investigations if needed by your Specialist.
