Welcome to health care magic.
1.The history and symptoms suggest there is inflammatory changes in the left testis.
2.In this case if you are mu patient i would have examine the testis first and any suspicion, i would have ask for a ultrasound examination.
3.That will give me a clear picture of your testis - weather there are any inflammatory changes, how is the blood supply, presence of any lump, collection, chord and vessels condition can be assessed.
4.Possibilities of hernia can also be ruled out during scan with cough and pressure reflex. ( as in your case its possible cause)
5.So suggest to get examined and treated accordingly. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate. Thank you.
