General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Dear- thanks for using our service, I understand your concern about testicular inflammation. It is important to have treatment for infection in the blood because that can produce severe complications . This is what is called sepsis. You will need intravenous antibiotics and find out why they are swollen. You might have an infection in the testicles creating this problem.The ultrasound will help to determine if there is a cyst or mass in the testicles.
I recommend you bed rest,continue with the antibiotics and follow up the ultrasound results.
I hope that my advise has been helpful
