What Causes Intermittent Pain In The Scrotum?
Question: I have a pain in my scortum last 2 to 3 days. It comes and goes and it is not consistent. I had the pain in the evening and it is gone by morning.
I touched the testicles there is no pain and it is not swollen or saggy. There is no pain while coughing or jumping. The pain is more near the groin. I am not sure what is causing it. Anything to worry?
