Suggest Treatment For Testicle Enlargement

My husband had quadruple bypass, a stroke, 2 different pacemaker operations for a total of 77 days in the hospital, over a period of 1 year. He
also has a hernia that has been inoperable due to the weak heart. Over the past months, his testicals have enlerged to the size of a large grapefruit, between his legs. When I try to discuss this or suggest anything, including a visit to the Dr. he ignores me, will not speak to me for several days and avoids any discussion of any needed medical treatment. He turned sixty eight this month and is an Air Force Vietnam era Veteran. I do not know what to do. I have almost lost him several times in the past year. I am the caregiver, only to cook and clean, in his mind. What can I do, if anything?

Hi,

We have to find out the cause of testicular enlargement. It may be due to hydrocele or rarely due to tumours. You can consult a urologist and get an ultrasound scan of his scrotum.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
