See a good bike fitter. If you are over 40 then good idea to go get checked out which will unfortunately involve, or should involve, a prostate check digitally and by blood test. If you end up with the diagnosis of a "prostate infection" be very suspicious about taking long term antibiotics, your prostate might be inflamed but not likely infected and some of the antibiotics(cipro and levaquin primarily) can have some nasty side effects in terms of tendon and ligament damage. Best of luck, keep us informed
Oh and btw that's not your groin, thats your taint.
Hello Dr. And thank you for your response. I'm 47 years old. Actually, I saw the urologist's yesterday. He checked my groin area.He Pressed with the finger About specific areas around my testicles, there was no pain, so he told me that he doesn't think it's an urologist issue, maybe something with the bone. I guess he's right, my weight was mostly on the groin bone (I hope I say it right) which was on the saddle. But I'm really not calm with that , because my balls are swallen and the Bottom skin is hard, like a leg hard skin. the area is sometimes heart. I wonder what can I do now.
