My Husband's Testicle is swollen

Dear Ask The Doctor: My husband's left testicle is very swollen and I was wondering what might cause that ? It has been this way for a week. He is 52 years old and has a Heart condition.
Dear Adella: The following conditions can all present with one or both testicles swollen:
- Hydrocele (collection fluid within the scrotum)
- Heart Failure
- Testicular mass
- Hernia
- Varicocele
- Testicular cancer
Your husband will need to see a doctor to differentiate between all these possibilities. |
