I'm not a guy, but I am a nurse. Does the pain go away after you are up and about? If it does it could be swelling in the area due to lying in one position too long. More likely though, it may be epididmyitis, inflammation of the epididimys on the testicle. I would strongly suggest that you call your PCP and probably your surgeon. The surgery should not cause any testicular pain. Get evaluated ASAP.
