Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
You are probably suffering with infection. Chances of S.T.D. are less. It might be skin of the scrotum, epididymis, or testicle which is inflamed. It requires examination and palpation to find out the part infected. As RPR test is negative, you should consult a general surgeon. Required investigations can be decided after examination only. Meanwhile use loose panties.
Wish you good health,
