What Causes Intermittent Swelling In The Testicles?
My son is 22 and has swollen testicles (he started experiencing this problem off and on,mseveral months ago). He went to a doctor today, tests were taken and the doctor said to watch it over the next 3 months. My son a regular user if weed. Is there a correlation?
Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.
I don't think there is correlation between weed smoking and these symptoms. It sounds to me more like varicocele or hydrocele so he should do ultrasound to rule this out since in some cases it should be surgically corrected.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us. Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
