General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Since one testicle is 5 to 6 times larger than the left without any pain or symptoms I am worried about the following:
This can be a cancer as it is always painless in the initial stages.
It can be a hydrocele for which there is not much of a botheration.
.
I would suggest you the following:
Get and ultrasonography and consultation of a general surgeon or an Urologist and get operated as per the cause found on investigations .
I find this answer helpful
