What Causes Swelling Of Testicles?

A possible mild infection might be there, please consult doctor immediately
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. Swelling in testis might occur due to mild inflammation. It is mentioned that the symptoms developed in the last ten days and your son is finding it difficult to walk, therefore an infection as the primary cause of the swelling and discomfort is to be ruled out.
2. It will be important to get a clinical examination done of the testis and then if required an ultrasound scan might be required to know if there is any problem inside the testis. The blood flow to the testis is also important to evaluate.
3. The other point about feeling a hard penis when talking nicely with a girl is a normal male arousal behavior. This is part of normal reaction in a male when a girl talks sweetly. Please do not worry about this point.
Inability to pass urine might also be due to an infection.
In conclusion, please take your son to the doctor and have his testis examined clinically. Most likely it might be a mild infection which will heal with medicines. However an ultrasound scan might be done if required to study the testis and its blood flow.
Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
Regards,
Dr.Vivek
