Dull Pain In Testicle Area, Testicle Lowered When Young And Is Undersized, Have Job Involving Lifting, No Swelling. What Could It Be?

Hello Dr, I am a male of 34 in generally good health. I seem to have a dull pain in my left testicle area. I have already read another post on this, but as my testical in question is not normal I don t know if I have a normal problem or not. the forementioned testicle was lowered when I was about 11, but it never grew anymore and is undersized. Both are tender to check for lumps , but they have always been that way. I lift quite a lot in my job, so it could be a hernia I guess, but I haven t found any swelling . I don t know if it is of any importance, but I was born with a double hernia and jaundice weighing in at 2lb 4oz. may not be relevant. thanks for your time.

Hi,
Thanks for query,
Your undersized left testical need examination to confirm its growth.
Some times lack of blood supply causes non function testis may not grow further or it was an undecended testis.
As you lift weight you should also to be ruled out for congenital hernia .
You should consult your doctor for diagnosis.
Thanks.
