Suggest Medication For Enlarged Scortum

I am 70 years old. I have a history of cirrhosis, i think early stage. have not had alcohol for two years, recently I have noticed my testicles hanging much lower, though the scrotum itself does not seem noticably enlarged. would this be related to the disease?

Hello
Thanks for query .

You have been detected to have early stage of Cirrhosis of the liver and have noticed your testicles to be hanging down lower though Testicles do not seem to be noticeably enlarged .

The hanging of the testicles has no significance at all .It entirely depends upon the atmospheric temperature .

As regards your doubt for enlargement of testicles I would suggest you to get Ultrasound scanning of the scrotum done to be rest assured about presence of fluid(Hydrocele) which does happen in a patient with liver cirrhosis .

However there is nothing to be worried about it .
