Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this swelling and discomfort. The possible causes include orchitis, epididymitis, varicocele, hernia, or hydrocele. A good clinical examination examination and possible examinations would be needed to establish teh exact cause and treat accordingly.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
