Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What your friend could be having is infection of the testis or varicocele or may be early stages of inguinal hernia.
Kindly get his scrotal ultrasound done to know what would be the status. Also, kindly consult Surgeon and get him clinically examined and evaluated.
Then accordingly, the treatment can be planned and instituted.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
