I'm experiencing some pain in my left testicle, and it's kind of radiating from my lower abdomen on the left side down to there. Can you help me understand what's going on?

The symptoms you are describing could be due to a condition called epididymitis, which is inflammation of the epididymis. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen (e.g. Advil) to help with the pain and inflammation. It is important to also rest, wear supportive underwear, and apply a cold pack to the area. However, it is crucial to see a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment, as antibiotics may be needed if the cause is bacterial.

View allI have a 7.1x6.9mm epididymal cyst and noticed pus in my semen. I did a semen culture test and took meds but nothing changed. Are there other treatment options or would surgery be needed?
Given your persistent pus in semen despite antibiotic treatment for a suspected infection, and the presence of a 7.1x6.9mm epididymal cyst, further evaluation and potential surgical intervention should be considered. While antibiotics are the first line of defense against infection, if the pus persists, it could indicate a blockage or structural issue, potentially related to the cyst, that requires surgical removal (spermatocelectomy).
