Had Allergic Reaction Due To Bee Sting And Took Steroids, Benadryl And Now Pepcid. Can Any Of This Cause Swollen Testicles With Mild Pain?
my 4 year old son had a severe allergic reaction to a bee sting and now he's home. he had to take steroids, Benadryl and is now on Pepcid. his testicles appear to be swollen or maybe swollen around his tesicles, they aren't black and blue but he says it hurts but he's not in tremendous pain. Is there a link between the bee sting and the swollen testicles?

HI
Thank for asking for asking to HCM
If the testicle it self being sting then the swelling is likely, but if it is intact then the reason of swelling could b something ales, because in any allergic condition the swelling of testis is not common, keep giving the steroid and I would advise you to start the long acting antihistamine "Livocetrizine" will be the best drug, have nice day.
