I think you need to get it checked once by a surgeon. It may affect you in later life.

1. with ultrasound r/o:hydrocele,hematocele,pyocele and varicocele
2.see a surgeon or urologist
Urologist Dr. Saurabh Pandya's  Response
hi, normally testis is vertical. a horizontal testis indicates abnormal suspension of testis from its blood vessels in the scrotal sac. sometimes, such testis can twist on its blood supply. get yourself checked by a urologist to see if everything is ok. take care.
