default
Posted on Fri, 12 Dec 2014
Question: my testicles are swollen. no pain. still have erections and normal urine flow. i had a heart attack in May of this year and had 3 stents put in. the stents were put in through my right leg. Thats when i first noticed it when i was in the hospital. i had 3 more stents put in 3 months later. i have completed cardio rehab. I am exercising at the gym. not sure if this is pertinent to the prob but thought it best to put it in. Im taking on Lopressor, aspirin, effient, and atorvastatin. I plan to visit my Dr. this week or next.

Brief Answer:
If painless swelling it most likely hydrocele.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking Health care magic forum.

I have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely hydrocele. It can be ruled out by a local examination by a GP or general surgeon. If not symptomatic and less swelling it can be observed. If swelling is more then a surgical eversion of sac should be done.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
