Detailed Answer:
Hi,


Thanks for asking on Health care Magic.



I have gone very carefully through your query.

As per your clinical history is concerned it is due to an infection only so you need a physical examination by your treating doctor and he will examine enlarged lymph nodes in your groin and scrotum. Then he will prescribe you a course of higher antibiotics and a full blood count with differential. Apply ice packs and take any pain medications to relive discomfort.your doctor is likely to recommend a followup visit to check that infection has cleared completely. If it has not gone away after medication then minor surgical repair will be required if any abscess formed.


Hope that helps.
