Suggest Treatment For Third Testicle Problem With Tenderness And Pain

Hi, my husband has what seems to be a 3rd testical. The problem is that it varies from VERY large in size....to very small and sometimes disappears altogether. It is very very tender and often causes him a lot of pain. It this serious? We don't have any health insurance, but need to know if it is in need of care!

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,
It could be a Secondary Hydrocele which can sometimes look and feel like a 3rd testicle.
You can get an Ultrasound Scrotum done and see a Surgeon for confirmation.
If it is then it can be treated simply.
Take care,
Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
