Testicular pain: Please ask your docs about Kegal exercises for men. Do you ride a bike or wear boxer shorts? There may be lifestyle choices that strain the area. Are you especially anxious/tense in body? Therapeutic massage (not of genitals but entire body otherwise) may also help. Nerve damage? See urologist or neurologist. Peace and good health.
