Wow!

How praytell?

> Are there any tests (MRI?) that can be done other than surgery.

I'm not aware of MRI having that fine a detail. It might have some contribution, but I really don't know. This really is a urological sub-specialty, and I myself certainly have no experience in the area, which is why I recommend you ask around the big centres for someone who sees all of this type of problem.

Better than nothing is all I can guess.

> Also, my left testicle is hanging much lower than the right.

And it wasn't before? I really can't see any connection here. Is there something else about what happened that makes you particularly concerned by this particular aspect?
