Ok im a mid teenager whos healthy. But for like the past year and a half or so i would randomly get this pain and big swelling in my left testicle (some times worse than others) that would lead to a little swelling in my lower bladder. It would come and swell up big for like a day and go away for like a while. It would keep comming and going for like a period spread out of about once evry 2 to 3 months. when it happened its painful but not that bad. depending on how swollen it got. When i got it i do have abdominal pain laso liek a bad sotmach ache. I did have surgery as a oyung ki8d in my same left trsticle to move it down into the sace becasue ti was up to high. Does this have n\anything to do with it? any recommandations?

You need to be checked by a doctor. Have them check you for testicular cancer. It is extremely curable if it is caught early.

It may, my ex-husband was a huge wrestler in high school and had been kicked in the testicles a lot. When he got older, his left testicle began swelling and got larger and larger. When he couldn't take it anymore, he went to the doctor. The doctor told him it was from an old injury and that fluid had built up inside the testicle. He just had to have the fluid drained and that was it. He's been healthy ever since.

Cancer of the testicles is the most common type of cancer in men aged 20 to 34. The causes of testicular cancer are unknown, but men born with an undescended testicle (one that remains in the abdominal cavity rather than descending into the scrotum) may be at greater risk of developing the disease.
The most common symptom of testicular cancer is a lump, irregularity or swelling in one testicle. Other symptoms that may be present are:
A pulling sensation or feeling of unusual heaviness in the scrotum
A dull ache in the groin or lower abdomen
Pain or discomfort (which may come and go) in the testicle or scrotum
Tenderness or enlargement of tissue in the breast [chest] area.
A sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum (a "hydrocele").
Most lumps in the scrotum are not testicular cancer. However, anyone who notices one or more of the symptoms above should visit their doctor to be examined/evaluated and to obtain his/her medical advice.
Testicular cancer can't be prevented. To help detect it early, you should be aware of how your testicles feel normally, so that you notice any unusual lumps, irregularities, enlargements or areas of firmness.
A good time to feel the testicles is when you are having a warm bath or shower, when the scrotal skin is relaxed. Feel each testicle by rolling it between thumb and forefinger.
You may notice that one testicle is slightly larger than the other, which is normal. Also, it is normal to feel the epididymis - a small, firm, tube-like structure at the back of the testicle. This stores and transports sperm.
If you notice a lump or change in appearance of your testicles you should visit your doctor. He/she will physically examine you to rule out any other conditions or infections that can cause similar symptoms.

Are you sexually active? It could be any number of things, from an STD, fluid build up, an infection, or a cyst. The only way to find out is to see a doctor. If your embarrassed and don't want to tell your parents, go to the nearest health dept. They have to keep your info confidential. Please see a doctor, the earlier you figure out the problem, the better chance of a good outcome.

Becareful if for some reason your testical twist you could end up in surgery. Testicals will only last with out blood flow for a few hours. See a doctor soon....
