However, I can provide you with some general information about possible causes: testicular torsion: this is a serious condition that occurs when the testicle rotates, cutting off its blood supply. It often causes sudden and severe pain in the testicle and requires immediate medical attention. Epididymitis: this is the inflammation of the epididymis, a coiled tube located at the back of the testicle. It can be caused by infections or other factors, and it may result in pain and swelling in the scrotum. Varicocele: this is the enlargement of veins within the scrotum, similar to varicose veins. It can cause discomfort or pain, especially when standing or exerting pressure on the area. Inguinal hernia: this occurs when a part of the intestine or other tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles, often causing pain or discomfort in the groin area. Muscle strain or injury: sometimes, pain in the testicle can be caused by a strain or injury to the muscles in the area, which can be exacerbated by movement or touch.

Kidney pain vs. Back pain because your kidneys are located toward your back and= underneath your ribcage, it may be hard to tell if the pain you’re experiencing in that area is coming from your back or your kidney. The symptoms you’re having can help you figure out which is the source of the pain. The location, type, and severity of the pain are some of the things that will be different depending on whether the pain is from a problem in your kidneys or your back. How to identify kidney painkidney pain is most often caused by a kidney infection or a stone in the tubes coming out of your kidney. If the pain is coming from your kidney, it will have these features: where the pain is located kidney pain is felt in your flank, which is the area on either side of your spine between the bottom of your ribcage and your hips. It usually occurs in one side of your body, but it can occur in both sides. Type of pain kidney pain is usually sharp if you have a kidney stone and a dull ache if you have an infection. Most often it will be constant. It won’t get worse with movement or go away by itself without treatment. If you’re passing a kidney stone, the pain may fluctuate as the stone moves. Radiation of the pain sometimes the pain spreads (radiates) to your inner thigh or lower abdomen. Severity of the pain kidney pain is classified according to how bad it is — severe or mild. A kidney stone usually causes severe pain, and the pain from an infection is usually mild. Things that make it better or worse typically, nothing makes the pain better until the problem is corrected, such as by passing the stone. Unlike back pain, it usually won’t change with movement. Accompanying symptoms if you have a kidney infection or a kidney stone, you may also experience: •fever and chills •nausea and vomiting •cloudy or dark urine •an urgent need to urinate •pain when you urinate •a recent infection in your bladder •blood in your urine (this can happen with an infection or kidney stones) •small kidney stones that look like gravel in your urine how to identify back pain back pain is more common than kidney pain and is usually caused by a problem in the muscles, bones, or nerves in your back. Has the following features: where the pain is located back pain can occur anywhere on your back, but it’s most commonly located in your lower back or one of your buttocks. Type of pain muscle pain feels like a dull ache. If a nerve has been injured or irritated, the pain is a sharp burning sensation that may travel down your buttock to your lower leg or even your foot. Muscle pain may affect one or both sides, but nerve pain usually only affects one side. Radiation of the pain nerve pain may spread to your lower leg. Pain from a muscle usually stays in the back. Severity of the pain back pain is described as acute or chronic based on how long you’ve had it. Acute pain lasts days to weeks, subacute pain lasts six weeks to three months, and chronic pain lasts longer than three months. Things that make it better or worse back pain may get worse with movement or if you sit or stand for a long time. It may get better if you switch positions or walk around. Accompanying symptoms other symptoms you may experience with back pain include: •the painful spot looking swollen and feeling tender to the touch •a muscle spasm in the painful area •numbness or weakness in one or both of your legs (if the pain is due to a nerve issue) if you find you have back pain and can’t hold your urine or bowel movements, something is pressing on your spinal nerves, and you should be evaluated immediately. This condition, called caudaequina syndrome, can cause severe long-term damage to your spinal nerves if not treated right away. 6 imbalances that cause pain—and how to fix them "pain is a medical condition and a medical issue, says brett jones, owner of applied strength in pittsburgh who is certified for the functional movement screen, a system of tests and cor rective exercise strategies.
