What Does Swelling In The Right Testicle Indicate?
I have in the past 24 hours had my right testicle swell. it is sensitive to touch...no bleeding in urine. i have had several kidneystones in the past couple years since I turned 65. Currently being treated for a UTI. My urologist is on vacation until Monday. His office suggests I wait until Monday if I can. Should I go to ER? what are the risks of waiting?
