Default Groin Pain

So I'm a bit concerned, and I will note I'm going to go see a doctor hopefully this week. But here's the sitch. I have been having some groin pain where it can be a minor pain or a semi-striking pain for a split second in my groin. I also when jerking off today notice I feel pain not in the groin but more above my penis umm I guess where the pelvis is, on the right side. When I touch my testicle (the right since that seems to be where the pain is located, though I check the left too) I feel nothing. No enlargement, no lumps, nothing. I am not sexually active (I have had sex but not active with it) and get tested often, so I'm honestly not sure what's happening. It's happened before and when my doctor checked back then, he just told me I was worrying too much, that everything was fine. I mean I could very well be told the same thing but Kara or anyone who might have an idea, I could really use thoughts just so I know maybe what to ask the doctor regarding this pain. Could it be epididymitis? Like I really worry as my bio-father has non-hodgkins (or hodgkins) lymphoma but I don't think I have any of the symptoms. If anyone could let me know what to ask the doctor, really appreciate it.

Hernia? Swollen Lymph nodes? (I've been getting lots of swollen lymph nodes around there lately... :s and they've been tender to the touch)

Well there aren't really lymph nodes in the testicles last I checked. It could be a hernia, but I feel nothing when I hold them and cough though of course I'm not a doctor. I do sorta wonder if potentially it could be from over usage? I don't like grab them when jerking off but um...I do often jerk about 10 times a day?


Edit: Hrm while I still want opinions I may have just solved my problem. Here's a list of what over masturbation can cause


Fatigue. Feeling tired all the time
* Lower back pain - got it
* Thinning hair / Hair Loss
* Soft / Weak Erection - has happened often when I try to insert into a guy in the past
* Premature Ejaculation -this has and hasn't happened. I can hold it mostly though I'll admit soon as I'm bottoming, if I stroke, it's almost sure fire thing for me to wind up going off within like a minute.
* Eye floaters or fuzzy vision - well not sure about this being caused by it but well I do have an eye floater...
* Groin / Testicular Pain - yes
* Pain or cramp in the pelvic cavity or/and tail bone - again yes....


Perhaps I need to lay off jerking for a day or two....and when I start again, limit myself to one or two times rather than ten...

There's several possible causes. Often it's a pulled muscle or other temporary condition. If it radiates to the scrotum or anus, it can be a sign of prostatitis- especially if it occurs with ejaculation.

Sometimes when guys have changes in the frequency of masturbation/sex (as in going a habit from regular ejaculation to suddenly having several a day or not having ejaculations for several days), the prostate can get a temporary inflammation. It's not necessarily an infection- it's often aseptic prostatitis which is inflammation of the prostate absent infection.
