Reason For Testicle Pain, Burning Sensation, Pain Near Scar?
hi there, im inquiring for my husband whom is suffering from aches ect, he had the snip done around 9 years ago, procedure went well, a few years after the snip my husband was suffering with pain and swelling in the left testical, we followed this up and he was told that he had blew a seel, meaning his testy was being choked by variagus veins, so he had an operation to have his left testy removed. every now and then he has been suffering from a pain in the ball that is no longer there, when he urinates he feels a sensation running down the inside of his left leg, also he says he has a light burning sensation running down the same area, and pain near the scar where they made the incision for the removal of his testie, hubby has had prostate checks and all clear, sitting up causes him discomfort in the said areas..any insight would be much appreciated..

HI. Thanks for the elucidate history.
This is called a phantom pain and is a very rare thing that there would feeling and pain in a part which is not there.
Another possibility is that the nerves supplying this area are entrapped in its course. First thing is to find out where and treatment to be started for this parasthesis or a referred pain.
IN old times the nerve causing this problem was excised if the pain is unbearable or irritating the routine life.
I hope my answer will help you to get the diagnosis and treatment under the guidance of Urologist or Neurologist.
