What Causes Pain In The Middle Of The Lower Abdomen?

Hi, I'm 45 years old male. I've been having a pain in the middle of my lower abdomen (the pain become more severe when I stretch my abdomen) for 5 days. The pain is localized in the middle (sometimes to the left) and travels from below the navel down to testicles, especially the left testicle. I can also feel the pain while moving, or climbing down stairs. I sometimes used to have this kind of pain after exerting physical effort (especially sports), but it used to last for less than an hour.
Thank you for your help

Hi.
This type of pain occurs in testicular conditions like Varicocele, or a tumor or severe infection in the scrotum '
The best way is to get an ultrasonography and color doppler of the Scrotum and abdomen to confirm or rule out the diagnosis.
And get operated accordingly.

General Surgeon Dr. T Chandrakant's  Response
Hi.
The commonest reason for such type of pain bellow and to one side of naval and referred to the testicle is due to a large varicocele or recurrent torsion of testis or epididymo-orchitis.
Get ultrasonography and color doppler of the abdomen and the scrotum for a diagnosis.
Ureteric colic on the same side is another possibility that USG will help
The treatment will be as per the findings- like antibiotics or derotation and fixation of the testis.
