Suggest Treatment For Bruise On Testicle

My son got on an coaster ride and after complained about pain on his right testicle. We looked at it and it looked a bit red an swollen. I took him to Urgent care and the doc stated that it was possibly bruised. It has been 6 days and he is still in some on and off pain. What should I do? Do I get him an ultra-sound?

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .
Pain and redness of the testicle is mostly due to infection of Testicle (Orchitis)

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical and digital rectal examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of Scrotum.

In the mean while give him broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .

Ensure he drinks more water .

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
