Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!

you may have a varicocoele. this is abnormal dilation of the veins in the testis which may cause pain. this can be detected by physical examination and testicular ultrasound with Doppler.

I would suggest seeing a doctor to have it checked because it might cause infertility.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.HealthcareMagic.com/doctors/dr-manuel-c-see-iv/66014 I would gladly help you. Best wishes
