What Causes Sore Left Testicle With Brownish Strands In Semen?

Hi - I have a sore left testicle (very dull ache), and have noticed some small blackish/brownish strands in semen (very few though) off and on in the ejaculate over the past few months. Slight pain while urinating/frequent urination say once a week or so - otherwise healthy - do i need to go for a medical exam?

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that youpain in testicles and noticed blackish strands in semen

This is mostly due to Prostatitis .

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical and digital rectal examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Routine urine tests and culture
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis and Trans Rectal Ultrasound Scanning.

Taking broad spectrum antibiotics for 3-4 weeks help to resolve his problem.
