Please be reassured. Your urine test and ultrasound of abdomen and pelvis are normal, and a pain that shifts from one side to the other, comes and goes, and is mild is almost never due to a serious cause like torsion or a tumour. Such vague scrotal pain in young men is usually due to mild epididymal congestion, a small varicocele, a muscular or groin strain, prolonged sitting or riding, or referred pain, and quite often anxiety and repeated self examination make the discomfort worse. What will help is wearing snug supportive underwear, avoiding heavy lifting and long cycling for 2 weeks, and not repeatedly pressing or checking the testicles. You may take Tablet Paracetamol 500 mg after food if the pain bothers you, at most 3 times a day for 2 to 3 days. One thing that would be useful is a scrotal ultrasound with Doppler, as the abdomen and pelvis scan may not have covered the scrotum properly. Go to the emergency immediately if you develop sudden severe pain, marked swelling or hardness, redness, fever, vomiting, or a lump that does not go, as these need urgent evaluation. Otherwise please see a doctor for a physical examination, and you are welcome to consult me here (fee Rs 500).
