Left testicular pain is caused by conditions such as acute epididymo-orchitis. Bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, and chlamydia are the main causes of genital tract diseases. Testicular pain may also result from testicular torsion. On physical examination, the affected testicle appears transversely oriented, enlarged, and tender to touch. If there are clear clinical signs, ultrasound can confirm reduced or absent blood flow signals in the testicular artery.
