General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
If the pain in the has started only after the a lot of exercises, this can be connected to the Gym activities.
The probable causes can be as follows:
-Straining of the Cremaster muscle which supports the testes and comes as an extension of the abdominal muscles . The strain on this muscle can cause the testis to get elevated and rotated hence causing the pain and swelling you have.
-Pre-existing orchitis can get enhanced with the exercises.

I would advise you the following:
-Physical Examination by the General Surgeon or Urologist.
-Ultrasonography and color doppler examination of the scrotum and urogenital system
-Scrotal support during exercises.
I find this answer helpful
