Hello,
You are having sudden onset of testicular pain and swelling over that part. So it is an emergency condition. You need to rule out torsion of testis. Torsion of testis needs urgent treatment within 30 minutes to one hour.
So you should consult Urologist for detailed evaluation and get an ultrasound examination. Meanwhile, you can take anti-inflammatory medication like brufen for five days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
