Left testis pain: While there are numerous possible causes of scrotal and testicular pain and discomfort, a common one, especially on the left side, would be a varicocele. These dilated varicose veins often begin aching late in the day when you have been on your feet for long periods and are improved by elevation of the feet. See your physician and be examined to determine the cause.
