hi
thank you for asking the concern and welcome to HCM. testicular swelling with burring of penis is more likely a hydrocele may be of both side also. i would suggest to visit any surgeon but this is not urgency. if your father is not able to pass urine or having much pain or swelling is painful to touch then you should visit as early as possible. as your father is 84 year old, surgeon may find it difficult to operate but hydrocele operation can be done under local anaesthesia also so please find correct surgeon. it will be much releving for him.
feel free to ask any doubt
thank you
regards
