How To Loosen Scrotum For An Ultrasound Scan?

How can I, 46 yr/old, loosen my scrotum for an ultra sound exam? My testicles normally ride too high and tight, hidden up within my groin, to gain sufficient U/S exam wand access. However, at times, especially while sleeping, my scrotum hangs very loose, allowing my otherwise un-examinable testes to me fully and individually examined by manipulation.

Hi
You seem to have an exxagerrated cremateric reflex which is normal in many people. So put your mind to rest. Testcles can be scanned easily whether in the scrotum or high up in the groin. So let the ultrasonologist worry about it and not you.
