Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Such an occurrence of testis getting a position where you feel that you are sitting on testes or they come in between the thighs on lying down, this indicates that the scrotum has elongated due to local warmth.
I would advise you the following to rule out any other problems:
Get an ultrasonography and color doppler of the scrotum done, a clinical evaluation and examination to determine the diagnosis and get treated according to the findings.
Use loose clothes.Avoid hot and humid atmosphere.
Have scrotal bath with normal tap water or sit in a tub to shorten the scrotal skin naturally.
Do not worry, this is treatable and surgery is needed only if there is torsion or so and needs single stitch fixation to avoid further problems.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Sitting on the testes feeling and getting difficult to push and maintain in the forward position in sitting position is indicating that there is a long cord and thus by gravity they appear to be pushed back and hence the difficulty you are facing.
There is no actual treatment for such a condition other than applying a good scrotal support and accept it as it is.
Only thing that you have to get confirmed about is the possibility of varicocele that if present needs to be operated .
