Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .Swelling of the left scrotum associated with pain in abdomen on left side is mostly due to infection of the epididymis or Testis (Epididymo Orchitis )and needs to be confirmed ,

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Ultrasound Scanning of Scrotum
4) Color Doppler study of scrotum .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
