welcome to Health care magic.
1.Its just inflammation / infection in the testis / epididimitis.
2.A course of antibiotic may needed for treatment.
3.If there is any chance to have injury to testicles while sex, we can suspect torsion which also gives pain.
4.To be safe side, you have to get your ultrasound scrotum done, it will help to find out if its infection / inflammation or any partial torsion.
5.So suggest to visit your GP and get the scan done.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
