Can Removal Of A Testicle Due To Hernia Done In Childhood Cause Discomfort In The Other Testicle?

I'm a 35yr old man and when I was a baby I had a hernia in which one of my testicles had to be removed, not sure which one. About a week ago that one testicle has been feeling a little uncomfortable like butterflies in your stomach. There is no pain or lumps that I could feel. I've been with the same woman for 8yrs now, I'm a labor worker I put together the cages for the cement to be poured into. I'm a happy 35yr old white male not sure what's going on but should I be concerned, cancer??? And if it's not anything serious how long will I feel this way? Thank you for any information you may provide.

Hi and welcome to HCM.
I dont think this can be related since surgery in childhood is something else and more probably there is some new problem. it can be simple urinary infection or STD so you should do tests to rule these out first. Cancer is the last thing to think of. also,there can be hernia,epiddidmitis or other benign testicle lesions so you should do testicle ultrasound too.
Thanks for the query. Wish you good health. Regards
