This could be a hernia. Consult Urology and a Surgeon.
This is certainly something that should be investigated by a Gastroenterologist or General Surgeon. I hope you find answers and relief soon.
These symptoms could mean a whole host of things. Helpful information would include: any other symptoms? Associated with eating? What improves the pain and what makes it worse? When did it start? In essence, a full work up would be indicated in this situation. Don't ignore the symptoms and assume it will get better. As physicians, outcomes are commonly related to how quickly the patient presents. Don't wait. Get evaluated.
It is difficult to pinpoint with suck limited information, but it may be a hernia or varicocele. This can be diagnosed with a physical exam and an ultrasound.
Hello, you should see your primary care of a urologist for this soon.
