Is it a big problem if a boy's testicles are different sizes?

Patient's question:

What should I do if a 4-year-old boy has one testicle that is much larger than the other? Is it normal for a male to have one testicle that is much larger than the other again?

Doctor's answer:

If you've only noticed that one side of your child's testicle is larger than the other in recent days, it may be due to inflammation. It could also be a recurrence of hydrocele. If your child gets a cold in the coming days, it could also be a cause of this symptom. If you're not at ease, it's best to take your child to the pediatric department of a hospital for a check-up. If necessary, an ultrasound examination can be performed. If no obvious problems are found, you can rest assured.
