General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your elucidate history.
Yes, it is true that the left testis may be at a lower position than the right one as a natural variant and nothing specific about it.
What is more important that both the testicles are of the same size.

If your right testicle is larger, it will appear lower than the left as its weight will pull itself down.
Get ultrasonography and color doppler tests done so that a proper diagnosis is made.
These can be due to varicocele, hydrocele, cancer and so on.
Hence get an early diagnosis and get operated if advised by your General Surgeon or n Urologist.
