Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that your 14 years old son has swelling and pain of the Rt testicle since couple of days.

This is most likely to be due to infection of Testis(Orchitis)

Please consult qualified General surgeon or Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Haemogram
2) Routine urine test.
3( Ultrasound scanning of the scrotum.

He needs to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefexine along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily for 2 -3 weeks.
