What Causes Swelling In The Testicle?
Hi, My Caput Epididymidis is swollen on my right testicle. It is painless but can occasionally be uncomfortable. It s wider and slightly bigger but noticeable enough for me. The right testicle is also slightly bigger. I have an appointment with a GP, but that isn t until next week. Any idea what this could be?
