I'll try to not make this question too lengthy. But I have had what I believe to be a scrotal hernia. I've had it now for around twenty something years with no major problems. I have done as much as I can as far as researching Inquinal/scrotal hernias and there risk. Mine is on the left side of my scrotum. It is now at 7"long and 8"around in size. It makes my scrotum sack hang low when warm. When I was a teenager I had always thought I had one testicle. Wondered later in life after the hernia slid down into my scrotum if the testicle had failed to desend down. Read that when you have an undesended testicle that you are at a higher chance for a scrotal hernia. Now I wonder if the second testicle could have come down along with the hernia. When I gently squeeze the end of it, it feels like I'm squeezing a testicle. Has the same feeling and pain if squeezed hard enough, but does not freely move around like the other testicle does. I have no problem with the production of sperm. I had also read in some health sites concerning hernias that if it does not cause pain or if it is not embarressing to not worry about having surgery to have it fixed. Read that if it shows any signs of strangulation to get to an emergency room fast. Color wise it looks ok, just large looking. Which that does not bother me long as it does not get to the size of a basket ball. With me having it so long could it grown into the inquinal tube somehow? There is no sign of the intestine sliding inside the inquinal tube. There is no way for it to be reduced back up. I tried manuplating it to reduce and it will not. Think it has got too big now. Should I just leave it alone and see if it will get larger or see a doctor and have it checked out? I do not have insurance, so I cannot go see a doctor for something that is not interfering with my life or is not an emergency right now. What do you think? Hope I have not confused you or anyone. Any answer and response would be appreciated. I do not wear tight clothing and freeball mostly. Hardly no difference in size over the years. Thank you. Mike
