What Causes Pain In Lower Left Abdomen Sensitive To Touch And Pressure?

Hi, I am having a persistant pain in my lower left abdomin. It is sensitive to the touch and pressure, and has also periodically caused pain in my left testicle. The pain feels like a mixture of internal pressure and slight sharp pains.. Like i said it is very sentitive to touch and pressure. It has made is noticiably difficult to sit down or walk withouth pain and discomfort. I have never encountered this problem previously, and maintain a reasonable diet. I have not noticed changes in bowel movements either

HI.
Your history of pain in left lower abdomen with pain in the same side of the testicle is classical. As you have described it is sensitive to touch also and to pressure.
Such type of pains come in cases of nerve involvement. In your case this can be due to stretched nerve over a small recently developed hernia or entrapped in previously injured muscle - nor turned into fibrosis.
Consult a Surgeon for a clinical evaluation for hernia, examination of the testicles to rule out Varicocele or a mass in the testis.
To be confirmed by ultrasonography. You can have a medical treatment or an option to have a surgery.
