Hello
Thanks for query .
Pain in lower back and testicle is mostly due to infection of Epididymis (Epididymitis) or Testicle (Orchitis) .
You need to consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of Scrotum.
In the mean while start taking antibiotics like Augmentin along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .
Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
Please note your symptoms are not related to puberty.
