What Is The Cause Of Scrotal Pain Radiating From Lower Back?
hi! my husband experienced pain in his scrotum that seems to be radiating from his lower back. The next morning, he noticed a yellowish crystal-like substance that came out with his urine. A very small thing like the size of a grain of rock salt. what could it be? And why the pain?

Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!
Your husband has successfully passed out a kidney stone. Blockage of the ureter will cause flank pain and will radiate to the scrotum and inguinal area because of shared nerve distribution.
I would suggest getting a kidney ultrasound to check if you have more stones in the kidney. Also ask your husband to drink 2-3 liters of fluid to prevent further stone formation.
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
