did you ever resolve this? I've also had the exact same issue for years but I think it's getting worse. Doctors always fob me off with 'veins'. Sounds silly but the dull pain feels like a blockage and feels like my testicle has twisted which never seems to be the case. 

Hi There, 

mine is the exact same the bottom of my left testicle is quite tender to touch and sometimes the vein bulges which is when it feels blocked and twisted just like you said which gives the impression of a lump 

 it has been an ongoing problem for years now, I remember going to the doctors back when I was at Uni in 2015 about a dull ache in my groin and have had a lot of anxieties about cancer to the point where I would hear the word cancer and my groin would feel like it's flaring up.  Although I have been scanned a few times and been given all clear it still worries me.  it comes and goes sometimes a dull ache all day sometimes nothing.

I was told I have a small Spermatocele in my left testicle but cannot be removed unless I went through private healthcare and that was probably the last time I spoke to doctors about it as they said there isn't much I can do. It's just a real pain in my life I can't even lay flat on my stomach or on my side at night as this puts too much pressure on my testicle.

I have actually got an appointment with my doctor next week to discuss that this problem will not go away and will ask to get a referral to see a urologist to talk with them further about it (fingers crossed I can get this appointment with the urologist) 

I am glad I am not the only person with these worries. And I hope you get to the bottom of your issue too
