Should A Urologist Be Consulted For Unresolved Scrotal Pain From Fireworks?

I was hit with a twister firecracker during 4th of July when the 19 candle rocket titled over spewing the fireworls to the side insteads in the air. It hit me directly in the scrotum. Iam very blue and swollen, using ice as directed and taking pain Rx. It has been one week and I am not alot better. My family Dr. had me get an ultrasound which did not show any hemmorging. I was told I only had sever brusing. Should i seek help from my urologist even after 1 week in case there might be some other problem? I really am not alot better.

Urologist,  's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCM. As an Urologist,i can understand your anxiety.
If the scrotal swelling is persisting,definitely you need to see an Urologist.
The following tests need to be done as well :
1. urine routine and culture.
2. blood routine, creatinine,RBS,LFT,and platelets.
3. ultrasound-KUB,with a scrotal doppler scan.
According to the reports,an expert opinion can be given.
You should be on an anti-inflammatory drug,twice daily,with scrotal support.
