Hi, I just noticed that my 8 year old boy s scrotum is swallow on one side. He does not have any pain and it does not feel hard. he is not sure how long it has been swollen. The bump seems to be separate from his testicles, but is on the left side. Any idea what could cause the the swelling?

Hi...it could be epidymorchitis. Some times it can lead on to testicular torsion....I suggest you consult your nearest pediatric surgeon at the earliest. I urge you not to ignore it.
