Pain In Left Testicle. Should I Be Worried?

I m 33y/o male , non smoker don t have any past history of any medical conditions no previous surgeries or anything About a week ago, I got this strange mild pain feeling near my left testicle . I have checked for lumps and abnormalities but found nothing. no swelling no palpable varicocele bag of worms :) not tented I cant pinpoint whether the pain is in or near the testicle (in the scrotum ) or some sort of groin strain. the pain increases with sitting and disappears with standing up no nausea no fever no other symptoms I m virgin so no STDs so should I be worried ?

Thank you for your query.
According to your symptoms, the most probable diagnosis is epydidimo-orgitis , an infection of the spermatic cord and/or testis, this is not an STD but a germ that reaches the area via the blood stream. In the absence of infection one should also consider a groin hernia . Both require treatment but are not dangerous . The best doctor to see is a Urologist. I trust you find this information helpful, please ask if any further questions arise. Kind regards.
