: The ligament can be the cause of this symptom. I presume some strain is the cause. A urologist would be best to evaluate and advise you. In the meantime wear a support and avoid heavy lifting.

Wear a good support underwear and you will be OK. Only if you have pain then you see a Urologist rightaway.
