Welcome to health care magic.
1.The history suggest that the possible cause could be - complications of the post operative previous cause, recurrence, infective / inflammatory cause.
2.You need to get an ultrasound examination done.
3.Ultrasound will help to assess the cause of sore ness, any veins dilated, any signs in the other testis, fluid collection and so on.
4.If necessary guided FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology if any mass noted.
5.Follwed by the appropriate treatment. You should be aware after the previous operation you need to get a regular followup scans at least 6 monthly.
6.Get an appointment and do the needful actions as soon as you can. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
