Question : i am having pain in my right testis for this I have counselled by a urologist doctor.He said to undergo the following tests.
1.Blood test
2.Urine test
3.Urine culture test
4.Ultra sound test (Found in report " Inflammation on spermatic cords")

after receiving the test reports I visited the doctor again and he told me to "don't worry the test reports are ok no problem , u take medicines like Azithrol , Flexon and Hetrozon.Hence my pain is reduced but the enlarged portion is still same and also now little bit pain is coming in left side testis.So please give the right guidance for me on this issue.

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have inflammation of spermatic cord (Funiculitis) proved on ultrasound scanning of scrotum.

The urologist has rightly prescribed the proper drugs ,Please note that t takes 2-3weeks for Funiculitis to cure completely.

The pain in left testicle could be also a part of the same inflammation which will be taken cared of by these drugs.

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,
I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
