Left inguinal pain in men may be caused by conditions such as inguinal hernia, prostatitis, or orchitis. The inguinal region contains numerous lymph nodes, which can become inflamed upon infection, leading to pain in the groin area. Injury or excessive congestion of the spermatic cord can cause pain in the cord, and severe cases may result in a dragging discomfort in the testicle; therefore, a color Doppler ultrasound examination is recommended.
