What Does A Swollen Testicle Indicate?
Question: i have had swolin testicals for over 2 years no pain just swolin
Brief Answer:
You need a scrotal ultrasound.
Detailed Answer:
Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!
Swollen testicles in the absence of pain and present for 2 years would mean that infection is already ruled out due to the chronicity of the problem.
My likely diagnosis would be its either a hernia or a hydrocoele(fluid collection in the testis). Both conditions would be confirmed and/or ruled out with a scrotal ultrasound. Othet conditions that should also be ruled out is testicular mass or cancer which is painless 80% of the time.
I suggest seeing a urologist in your area so he can do a complete physical examination which is lacking in this forum.
I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.HealthcareMagic.com/doctors/dr-manuel-c-see-iv/66014 I would gladly help you. Best wishes
