Hello
Thanks for query .swelling of the testicle that you have after renal transplant surgery is due to retrograde secondary infection of the Testis (Orchitis) due to catheterization,

Get urine culture done to trace out causative organisms and take appropriate antibiotics as per culture report .

You need to continue antibiotics and anti inflammatory medications like Serropeptidase twice daily for 2-3 weeks .

Ensure to drink more water .

This will get resolved soon .
