Experiencing Swelling Of Scrotum, Had Inguinal Hernia Repaired. Cause And Cure?
I am experiencing a slight swelling of scrotum and sometimes a feeling of incomplete bm. It feels as if your nuts are dragging and feel a bit heavier than usual. Urine test is negative for bacteria. Had inguinal hernia repaired a year ago and have experienced a slight sharp pain in different positions when moving leg from the hernia site to different positions. IN the bridgebridge between rectum and scrotum it feels a little swollen but no pain just a foreign sensation.

Hi
it can be a hernia again also. But you have to see a surgeon to rule out whether it is a hydrocele,varicocele or hernia. Are you getting any bulge while coughing in groin area.Is it the same side that you had undergone hernia repair? Mostly people get one on other side after 1 side repair.If any of the three conditions,it can be repaired by a small surgery.No need to worry.
thanks
