discomfort in right testicle and groin extending to thigh and abdomen

Dear Doctor, I have been experiencing a discomfort in my right testicle and the surrounding areas for the past week. It started suddenly when I woke up one morning. Details- It extends to my lower abdomen area especially around the groin and the back of my right thigh. I dont have severe pain, but there is some discomfort or a mild ache which I notice while lying down or resting. I didnt see any problem while walking. I dont have redness, or any visible changes in the testicle. No fever, No nausea. I dont remember to have any injury happened in the area recently, and I dont have history of any testicular problems and infections.
