Brief Answer:
Can be related to the exercise.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The mild discomfort in the scrotal area can be due to stiffness of the abdominal muscles due to the exercise. It is not likely to be related to a scrotal pathology if there is no burning micturition or visible swelling in the area.
You can give rest to your lower abdominal muscles for a few days while exercising. Asking your trainer regarding the needed changes would be most helpful. In case the discomfort persists then do consult a physician for a physical examination and a urine test.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
