Hey Dome, sorry to hear about your problems. It sounds like a nightmare. I’m new to this forum and was just scrolling through when I saw your post. Your symptoms look a bit similar to what I’ve been dealing with for two years. My problem started when I was doing squats in the gym with breath holds. I’ve got pain in the left testicle (and occasionally burning abdomen or thighs) that’s set off by bending over or squatting down. When the pain is bad it’ll linger for weeks but usually it stays for a few days. It feels like a punch to the balls. NSAIDS and nerve blockers do nothing to help. Doctors think it may be chronic pelvic pain syndrome or non-bacterial prostatitis. Ive had MRIs and CTs and nothing was found. I was also checked for inguinal hernia but the docs found nothing and said the only way to know for sure was to cut me open! A urologist also found a small varicocele (1.5mm) and it’s technically possible that it’s the cause of pain but not likely.
So, sorry to hijack your thread with my story. If you have any insights I’d appreciate them. Best of luck with your condition.
