Tender And Shrank Testicles, Retracted Into Groin, Painful. Started After Having Mumps. Remedy?

I am an 83 year old male who had mumps at the age of 32, it affected my left testicle which shrank over the years. The testicle has ever since been very tender to the touch. Lately it seems that it has retracted into the groin and is very painful in that area. Is there anything I can do to get relief from this ;malady?

Hi,
It seems that you might be having atrophy of left testicle due to having mumps in the past.
Now it seems that there might be having some infection giving rise to this problem.
Consult surgeon and get it removed.
Ok and take care.
