What Causes Pain In The Testicles After A Spinal Surgery?
A day after spinal surgery a large blood clot formed in my inner thigh. Due to the fact they had to wait ten days before treating clot I gained 25 lbs in upper leg, abdomen and scrotum. It has now been 3 weeks since they successfully removed clot with a stent. However I still am having frequent dull pain in my testicles. Any thoughts? I am 62 years old.

Hello,
As there is a history of an underlying clot in the vascular system, a partial compromise with the testicle blood supply can be suspected and the same should be evaluated with doppler of the testes for best evaluation and management ahead.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
