Swollen Right Testicle

by hannerr, Jul 08, 2008 06:31AM
Me and my boyfriend have recently slept together for the first time. The thing is, i noticed straight away that his right testicle was extremely bigger than his left one, about the size of my fist and the other is about the size of a walnut.
It may sound strange but i spoke to his ex who said that when they were together nothing was abnormal about his testicles at all.
Im worried that he may have an STI, what could this be?

Hi

This may not be an STD. STD's usually present with rash or ulcerations in the groin area. You may ask your boyfriend about this. Other differentials may be varicocele or hydrocele which may present as large swelling or lumps in the area .A scrotal ultrasound may help ascertain the cause of this. In the absence of pain, burning sensation during urination and rash or ulcerations in the area, this may not be something you should be worried about. However, it is necessary that you speak to your boyfriend about this.
