My dad (aged 71) has had similar on/off for years at infrequent times and attributes it as a symptom of BPH. If regular, probably best to see a doctor for a diagnosis. Following that, I'd suggest Nutritional Therapy (which my dad follows) rather than prescription drugs.

can I suggest that you request your GP to refer you to an urologist. You cannot continue not knowing the exact cause of you pain.

I have BPH and it is well controlled by prescription drugs. A good diet is indicated for us all.

I have seen doctors and a urologist had a scan on medication for a long time got a 2 cm cyst on my left testicle had it for over 20 years with slight discomfort getting different options doctor and person who did the scan don't think it's the cyst but consultant wants to operate to remove it so confused

Removing the cyst may help and will enable its histology to be ascertained.
