General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi.

If the pinched nerve is in the region of the lower back then testicular pain is quite possible. But please also note that a varicocele is usually undetected during the early stages and I would recommend a repeat check on this in about a few weeks time. But in response to your question, yes testicular pain is possible with a pinched nerve in the lower part of the spine.

Best wishes.
