What Could Be Cause Of Right Testicle Swelling And Getting Larger?

My right testicle is swollen and getting larger. There is pain when it is touched and discomfort at rest. It has gotten huge over the last two days. I have iced it down with no affect. I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow, should I be more concerned than that?

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have pain and swelling of your Rt testicle since 3 days.

This could be due to infection of the testicle (Orchitis) .

Please consult qualified General Surgeon or Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Routine Urine test and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of scrotum.

In the mean while take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefexine along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.
