Is it normal for one testicle to be larger than the other?

Patient's question:

Four-year-old boy, with one testicle being larger than the other. They say he needs surgery. Is it necessary?

Doctor's answer:

The child may have hydrocele of the testis. If so, surgery is required. I suggest you upload the complete and detailed examination results of the child for easier assessment. In case surgery is necessary, it should be performed. I hope my explanation helps you. The testis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is prone after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment, appropriate medication, a light diet, avoiding stimulating foods, and not smoking or drinking alcohol are essential.
