Hi XXXX
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist, here to answer your query.
If you would have presented to me as an outpatient,my clinical explanation would have been-Radiating pain from groin to testicle specifically associated with urination is not likely of neurological origin.
Still,if urologist has ruled out the urological basis.I would advise you to get examined by a neurologist.He may ask you to get a MRI lumbosacral spine done,if indicated to rule out any radicular involvement.

Hope I have answered your query.If you have follow up queries,I shall be glad to answer else,please close the thread-rate it and write a review.
