Hello
Thanks for query.
You have undergone hernia surgery in 1974 and vasectomy in 1996 and now have noticed increase in size of our Rt testicle without any pain.
This is most .likely to be due to secondary Hydrocele .However this can be confirmed by clinical examination and Ultrasound Scanning of Scrotum.
Consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical assessment and for further treatment .
