I've been doing a lot of studying for the past 3 months, with prolonged periods of sitting down, sometimes in a slouched position. I get low back aches in the afternoon, but none that couldn't be relieved by Ibuprofen. Recently, I've noticed additonal symptoms. I sometimes feel a tingling sensation on my right big toe, also a feeling of numbness in that area. I have a very nagging right calf pain too, not like a cramp, more like it's sore, and stretching and massaging it kinda helps.
What has gotten me worried is the addition of right testicle pain. In the beginning, I considered an STD, but I am negative for all: Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphillis, etc. It's a dull nagging pain, that goes on and off, lying down pretty much helps, worst when I'm sitting, like it's being compressed. I doubt it's torsion, though that scares me.
Any thoughts on this?
I'm broke, unemployed, with no insurance, so I hope someone can help. Thanks.
