My right testicle hurts a lot and it started like 2 hours ago? i'm 18 (no sex) i have an inguinal hernia on the left side? what could it be ?

Possibly urgent: Since testicular torsion is on the list of possibilities, and could cause you to lose your testis, please consider seeing a doctor right away.
