Treatment for dull pain in the left testicle radiating to the lower left abdomen should be based on the underlying cause. It could be due to varicocele causing enlargement of the left spermatic vein. In cases of orchitis, bed rest and broad-spectrum antibiotics are required. For left-sided varicocele, the severity of the condition should be evaluated. If a distal ureteral stone is detected, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy or ureteroscopic lithotripsy should be performed.
