Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have pain in testicle since 2 weeks after routine sex .

I shall be happy if you can post me few more details to help me in making comments on your problem.
1) Do you have an urinary symptoms like burning ,frequency etc ?

In absence of any symptoms and having sex with your regular female partner the cause for pain in testicle is mostly due to inflammation of spermatic cord (Funicullitis).

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily for a week .

If possible avoid sexual activities till it gets cured completely .
