Hello
Thanks for query .
Swelling of the testicle at he bottom could be due to either infection of Epididymis or a Epididymal Cyst and needs to be investigated .

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of Scrotum

In the mean while take broad spectrum antibiotic like Augmentin along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
