What Causes Black And Blue Bruising Of The Scrotum And Penis?

detailed below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I read carefully your query and I can understand your concern for your son.
It is very difficult to think of a specific diagnosis with the information you have provided but if it was an acute condition like strangulation of inguinal hernia or a blood circulation problem ,he would have very strong ,unbearable pains .
If your son ,despite this change in color of his genitals ,feels good (no pain ,no swelling,normal urination etc),it is not an emergency but it is very important to see a doctor as soon as possible.It can be due to a minor trauma or a varicocele.Physical examination is essential for the diagnosis.
Hope it helps.
Please feel free to ask for every question you might have.
Kind regards,

Hello again.
I apologize for my misunderstanding .
Without being able to examine the area, it is difficult to say exactly what this lump is but considering the location it can be a hernia of the abdominal wall,a cyst ,lipoma etc.
If he doesn't have acute symptoms like abdominal pain ,genital pain, abnormal urination or defecation ,it is not an emergency but he need to see a doctor as soon as possible (if the symptoms persist).
Physical examination ,some blood tests and abdominal ultrasound are necessary to understand something more ,regarding the cause of these symptoms.
Take care.
