What Causes The Bulging Of Testis And Returning To Normal Level When Pressure Is Applied?

Good after noon, doctor. I am 37 years old and my problem is that sometimes my left testis gets bulged than the normal size and when i press it in some position, its gets back to the normal position. During this time, if i give pressure to the body, again the testis will get bulged. Normally it dosen't happens, but some time. After some period, it will be back to normal position. Generally i noticed, when i have to stand for a long time, this happens. Will you please suggest me the cause and remedy for this ?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You have the classical symptoms of inguinal hernia where there is a defect in the wall of inguinal canal which causes the intestinal contents to come out of abdomen. This spread into scrotum when you stand for a long period of time or when you apply abdominal pressure. I would recommend you to visit the surgeon and get it operated because right now the hernia is reducible which means that it goes back when you push it but over the time the intestinal contents will get inflamed. Which may lead to obstructed hernia. This is a surgical emergency.

Hope I have answered your query.
