Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
According to your symptoms you have right lower abdominal pain radiating to testicle. This type of pain can arise from testis or lower urinary tract. Urinary tract problem would also cause pain during urination, urinary retention like symptoms. Common causes of testicular pain are mentioned here
1. Inguinal Hernia- Out of testicular problems this problem is more common.This condition develops from a weakening of the abdominal wall in the groin region. The hernia often occurs at the inguinal canal & tissue protrudes through the hole. Sometimes caused by heavy lifting and is more common in obese people.
2. Testicular torsion - It is the twisting of a cord-like structure within the scrotum causing severe pain
3.Epididymitis- It is an infection of the long coiled tubes that store and transport sperm. Epididymitis may develop as a result of bacterial or viral infection. Often, the infection begins in the bladder or urethra, migrating into the epididymus, causing pain in the lower abdomen and testicles.
