Hi,
If along with testis color of genitalia also changed to black and if foul smelling & fever also present than Fournier gangrene should be suspected. If all these not present than swollen testis could be due to Orchitis. He need to be given antibiotic course and anti inflammatory drug for few days. I suggest you consult him to urologist for detailed evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
