Yes, I think a hernia can go into the scrotum. Hernia pain can also come and go.

It can be epididymitis or orchitis. In cases of hernia, a prominent bulge along with testicular pain is there and in cases of kidney or ureteric stones, pain during micturition may also be there.
You can provide support to the scrotum by wearing an athletic supporter, apply ice to the scrotum, take warm baths if there are signs of inflammation, while lying down, place a rolled towel under your scrotum or try over-the-counter pain relievers, like acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
Hello and hope you are doing well.
The common causes for testicular pain are injury, infection and torsion. Injury can cause a tear of the testicular layers or it can cause a hematoma (blood collection). Infection can affect and cause epididymitis or orchitis resulting in pain. Testicular torsion is an emergency as the blood supply may be compromised and needs to be relieved. Sometimes a tumor of the testis can cause pain. Consult your primary care physician for therapy.
It seems that the pain I feel originates from where the spermatic cord connects to the inside of my body only on the left side of my penis. I feel pain in the left testicle when it hangs low, but far less pain when it is sucked up into my stomache. could it be possible the spermatic cord is damaged or maybe the connective tissue around it?
It sounds like you have a hernia, probably not an inguinal hernia, they tend to bulge down into the scrotum. There is another hernia near there, can't remember the name. I have had 6 children with inguinal hernias. Only one of them had pain before we had them repaired...he was 13 and it was bulging into his scrotum. You do not want to wait until you have pain. I personally think your doctor gave you bad advice. A hernia can become a big deal sometimes.
can i ask who you are by the way?
I mean there is no information about you and so I am not sure where your advice is coing from.
Are you a medical doctor?
IN fact there is something else. The same time I found the lump and went to the doctor I started getting a stinging pain on the the joint between thigh and scrotum and even in the scrotum which hasn't gone away.
Doctor says its epididimtyis but am not convinced.
what do i do?
Common symptoms of this condition are pain or discomfort in groin, especially when bending over, dragging sensation over the groin. Ocassionally, in men pain and swelling in the scrotum around testicles can occur due to descent of the protruding intestine into the scrotum. This can cause intestinal obstruction, leading to constipation.
The bones (vertebrae) in the back are cushioned by small, spongy discs.
Hi, I had that in 2006 and it turned out the be an incarcerated hernia. Luckily it did not go into the scrotum. The pain got so bad that I went to see my doctor. Emergency surgery was performed to repair the hernia.
In the case of an incarcerated hernia surgery needs to be done as part of the bowel has restricted blood flow that could result in the death of the effected tissue.
You would be best of to see your doctor about possible surgery.
All the best.
Hi, I had a right inguinal incarcerated hernia repaired in 2006. Currently I have noticed that my testicle is higher in the scrotum than what it used to be. At times I still experience pain at the hernia site. They used mesh to repair the hernia. This mesh feels like a hard service, much harder than the left side in which I had an orchiectomy in 2000. Just recently in 2009 I came down with an abscess on top of the hernia scar.
Hello,
Scrotal swelling can be due to infections like epididymitis or orchitis, hydrocele, hernia, testicular torsion, varicocele or surgery in the genital area. You can provide support to the scrotum by wearing an athletic supporter, apply ice to the scrotum, take warm baths if there are signs of inflammation, while lying down, place a rolled towel under your scrotum or try over-the-counter pain relievers, like acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
I had laparoscopic surgery to repair an inguinal hernia. After 4 months, the hernia returned, and so I had a second repair surgery by incision. Now, 10 months after the second operation, I'm having some odd "tearing" pains and tenderness under the incision site, and down toward my groin. I'm trying to understand the geometry of the two repairs.
In cases of hernia, a prominent bulge along with testicular pain is there and in cases of kidney or ureteric stones, pain during micturition may also be there.
Lab investigations like complete blood examination, urine examination, ultrasound lower abdomen and sometimes a urethral swab will help in diagnosis. Treatment will be started thereafter.My advise would be to consult a urologist.
I hope it helps.Take care and regards.
Michael,
I just want to start off by saying that I do not think that it is your appendix that is causing your problems. It sounds more like a hernia to me. A hernia would also give you the pain you are describing when you put pressure on your abdominal area.
As for your other questions. There is no set age for when a doctor has to remove an appendix. It all depends on the condition of the appendix. In that I mean if an appendix ruptures it has to come out regardless of the persons age.
INGUINAL ULTRASOUND a hernia measuring 2.6cm x 1.2cm in diameter is present in the left inguinal region. The hernia contains omental fat. The hernia does not extend into the left scrotal sac. No other abnormality is noted. IMPRESSION Left inguinal hernia. SCROTAL ULTRASOUND Both testes are normal in size and internal architecture, The right epididymis is normal. A 6.4 mm cyst is present in the head of the left epididymis. There is no evidence of the hydrocele. Dilated veins measuring up to 3.

Hi,
I'm new to the forum and wasn't really sure where to post this. First off, I have never seen a doctor about this but will be going soon.
For years, not sure how many but MANY i've had a pain in my left testicle. It's also larger and feels abnormal like it's not "all together". I do have a hernia on that side. I have a large lump in my lower abdomen above. The pain doesn't happen till it gets bumped or touched.
severe constipation, severe gas pressure on my left side, pain in my penis and bladder, pain in my penis when urinating, urgency, a tight scrotum with ultra-sensitive "burning" skin, and an occassional rash on my hands, feet and abdomen. The clinic doctor did not think that any of this was related to my initial injury and told me to go see my personal doctor, which I did. As a result, I ended up having two ultrasounds (one from the clinic and one from my personal doctor).
