Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I ve been having groin pain and testicle pain for so time. I ve seen a doctor and had a ct scan done. They found a higinial..hernia but not sure what the groin pain is from. They put me on a steroid but the pain is still there and is hurting even more plus my heart is pounding
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The CT scan showing inguinal hernia does not prove the cause of pain as a hernia, reports are just supporting evidence.
I rely only upon the clinical evaluation for this concern. Kindly consult your surgeon in person for best evaluation in terms of the cause of pain and further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Purva Patel
