Hello, since about a month ago i've been
having lower back pain and testicle pain.
I went to the doctors who give me
antibiotics incase of an infection they
didn't do anything so I had my urine
tested and it was fine. So I went again
and the doctor checked my testicles and
said they where fine and booked me in for
a scan at the hospital of my kidneys and
bladder, that was on the 20th the scan was
fine they said. But still i'm
experiancing lower back pain but not so
much testicle pain anymore. What seems
to be happening is i'm having pain in my
leg down my thigh and along my fore arm up
along my 4th finger and pain in the back
of my neck. This seems to happen all on
one side at a time. Then switches to the
other side and so on. I have no idea
what this could be? If it carrys on i'll
go back to the doctors. The pain in my
thigh is on the inner side and seems to be
linked to my testicle. It's really
strange how it switches from left to
right. Anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks
sorry if i've posted this in the wrong
section...

You can always ask for a second opinion.
If you have pain in your testicle it could
be a varicocele (check the web for info),
if it's not that, it could be related to
your back.
Does your occupation require you to be
sitting all day? Your symptoms reflect a
person who is usually sedentary sitting in
front of a desk or computer.
Also, maybe stress is taking a toll on
you. If you are suffering from lower back
pain, my recommendation for you is to look
for alternative medicine... Neuromuscular
therapy is very good, it involves massage
while working trigger points in the
muscles and nerves. And it's a excellent
alternative for those with lower back
pain.
The shooting pain in your thigh could be
sciatica, again, related to your back
pain. You don;t say if you are
overweight or not, or if you lead an
active lifestyle but you can start looking
for a solution right away.

Hey thanks for the reply. I do spend long
hours on computers as I am on them alot at
home and in college. I'm not overweight
but I don't feel I am doing enough
exercise lately. Also the night I posted
the last message I felt very feverish and
my eyes went bloodshot and I felt sick and
dizy which lasted about an hour. That
also happend the night after but hasn't
happened since, apart from feeling sick.
The symptoms seen to be ok in the day time
then I feel worse at night time. Also the
pain isn't constatant. As I sit here I
only have a headache pain about my eye and
a pain in my forth finger on my right
hand. Also I noticed the pain in my thigh
and right testicle when its there its
sharper than the rest and seems to like
come then go then come then go like "on
and off" every secound. I am trying to
stay off the computer as much as I can
now, I havn't noticed much diffrence yet.
My dad thinks its rsi from being on a
computer so much but I didn't think that
could effect my thigh, testicles, give me
head ache and feeling sick?
