Hi
The size of the scrotum varies from person to person.
AS you are 69 years and weighing 350# ,your scrotal skin will be lax and will be hanging down.
It is normal.
If the scrotal skin is thick and is causing discomfort,you can reduce the size by surgery Your excess scrotal skin is removed and will be well fashioned for testis .
You can consult a Plastic surgeon/Surgeon for this.
Wish you good health
Regards
