Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern. As per your history the mild pain can be because of the torsion you may have got during sleep.

As you said you had this second time what you can do press your testicle by your finger if you feel it is numb or there is any loss of sensation (you may not get a jerk) it may be the cause of concern.

You may need to visit a general physician for proper check up, it may be orchitis of testicle too and you may be prescribed antibiotics like doxicycline too.

Hope my answer will help you and visit us back if you have any further questions.

Regards
Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray.
