Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my son is 6 years old, and he just complained of pain in his scrotum. I looked and noticed his right testicle appears very swollen. He said that he fell and hit the area. I dont know if this is just swelling from hitting it on something, or if I need to get him checked out for a hernia or something else ?
I feel this is a medical emergency. The possibilities are that it could be a testicular torsion or that it could be epididymitis. Please approach the nearest Emergency Room immediately.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani, Pediatrician, Pulmonology
