You should get it checked out but it's not your prostate. You might have a varicocele, which usually affects the left testicle and can cause aches and pains. Do a web search for varicocele and you can find out about it.

It could also be a strangulated testicle or a hernia of some sort. A sharp pain in the testicle area that lasts for hours and won't go away might be a medical emergency.
-
Any sudden sharp pain that lasts for more than two hours should be looked at by a docotor. As mentioned abouve it is considered a medical emergency

If it really hurts and it won't stop, you need to get yourself to an emergency room.

Yes, we had someone here who delayed medical treatment too long and lost the testicle. It may be embarrassing, but continued sharp pain needs to be treated seriously.
-
It could also be a torsion of the testicle (a cutting off of the blood supply), which needs immediate medical attention.
