What Causes Swollen Hard Testicle?
I am active in weightlifting and went to the doctor for a physical a year ago. My doctor told me it seemed as though I have early signs of a hernia after giving me the turn head and cough test. It seems that my left testicle has been drawn close to my body and even swells up more towards my stomach when active, a little harder than the right testicle. Could this all be a result of a possible inguinal hernia?
