Your suspicion sounds reasonable: these symptoms indeed might be due to nerve compression due to your spine disease. (But not the scrotum retraction or penis "shrinking". Probably those are separate issues.) Check with the doctor managing that problem ASAP: that sort of thing can become a lot worse very fast. Don't take a risk with erectile and bladder function. Good luck.
