Can kidney stones cause pain to 1 testicle?

I have a kidney stone, and I've been feeling a sharp, radiating pain in my left testicle. Can kidney stones cause this kind of localized pain to just one testicle? It's quite alarming for me.

Bro same thing happened with me last semester during exams. I thought it was some other issue but doc told me kidney stone pain can actually travel down there. Better get an ultrasound done quickly before it gets worse.

Yes it absolutely can. If you are planning tests, compare prices online first because some local labs charge a lot for scrotal and kidney scans. A government hospital or diagnostic chain might save you some good money.

My urologist explained that the nerves of the kidneys and testicles are connected from the same origin point during development. So when a stone moves down, the brain gets confused and you feel it in one side. A simple sonography will confirm the position.

Yes, this is very common with lower ureter stones. Just make sure you drink lots of water and see a urologist soon.

Haan bilkul ho sakta hai, mere cousin ko bhi yahi hua tha. Vo toh darr hi gaya tha bechara par doctor ne bola pathri niche aa rahi hai isliye wahan dard hai. Zyada tension mat lo par checkup zaroor karva lena, okay na?
