For approximately 2 years my scrotum goes tight as if cold when I’m active. My penis also sometimes contracts. It’s as if I’m cold even though I’m not. It happens every day. All is ok in the morning when I wake up or if I remain seated but once active a while all contracts and becomes uncomfortable. Taking Ibrupofen helps both discomfort and keeps all a little more loose.
what can cause this?

Ive currently been prescribed with 4 weeks of naproxen then going back to GP for face to face.
Do you think STI is unlikely and something else could be cause. It’s strange as when I remain lying down or seated scrotum remains more loose. Maybe not as much as it used to but definitely more loose / normy
