20 y/o M LBP: For worsening low back pain (lbp) with a normal x-ray, MRI is needed. Not all causes of lbp are seen on x-ray. If MRI is normal, should consult spine surgeon (they don't just operate don't worry), pmr, pain management. Lbp in a 20 year-old should be diagnosed properly to help prevent future problems. Labs & proper medical evaluation is too needed to rule out seronegative spondy or other ctd's.

Can varicocele cause the dull aching on lower or right abdomen? How about the minimal swelling above right testicle? Both goes away when resting or laying down. I was diagnosed with bilateral varicocele 2 years ago and wondering if it is causing this?
