Why are the testicles one big and one small?

Patient's question:

The son has just been born and is now seven months old. Last night while I was giving my son a bath, I noticed something abnormal with his body. I noticed that one of his testicles is larger than the other, with the left one being bigger. How can I treat the condition where one of the child's testicles is larger than the other?

Doctor's answer:

If the child experiences this situation again, it could be a recurrence of hydrocele. It could also be a recurrence of conditions like orchitis. It is better to go to the hospital for a follow-up check to see what is causing it. If it is a recurrence of hydrocele, observation treatment can be decided. If the symptoms are severe, surgical treatment may be necessary. For mild symptoms, observation can be done first. Attention should be paid to the child's feeding and the digestion of trace elements.
