Hi.
Noted your history swelling of the left side of the scrotum on / before bowel movements.
The most probable causes can be hernia descending into scrotum or large varicocele getting enlarged due to straining.
This can be diagnosed by clinical evaluation by a General Surgeon and ultrasonography with color doppler.
This definitely needs surgery, get prepared.
