I finally worked out that breathing the nasty smoke from my 20 year old mower with worn rings was making me feel like shit for days and causing intermittent tiny epididymal cysts to form which were causing excruciating pain when I got erect.

Been two months and I can now regularly get an erecting without crippling pain, and the constant ache has subsided to noticeable only.
