If it's a medical problem, you should see a doctor...

Otherwise, I'm not sure what the problem is... tight pants too tight? oversized scrotum?

Have you tried not wearing underwear under your cycling tights?

Try cycling "liners"- a padded brief made to be worn under regular clothing.

Under Armor makes a good athletic supporter type of boxer brief. They keep the boys in place, are comfortable and wick moisture away.

I was referring to their Heatgear Boxerjock, which comes in varying leg lengths. Here's a link with specs and reviews.
