I am an 18- year old man. I started having swollen testicles about a month ago. Kindly let me know what to do since I don’t have money to see a doctor.

Many conditions can cause swelling in one or sometimes both testicles. These include: an injury such as a direct kick or accident to the scrotum. Swelling can also occur when the scrotum fills with extra fluid, making it look swollen. It usually develops on only one side and tends to be painless. It’s much more common in babies, but sometimes you can get it as an adult. This condition known as Hydrocele usually goes away on its own. Other causes, could include an infection of the testicles (Orchitis), hernia as well torsion of the testicles. Any swelling of the testicles or scrotum especially when the swelling is progressing needs urgent medical treatment.
