My dog is a Manchester terror, he has had one very large testicle while the other one is very small. This has only recently occured. He's almost twelve and overweight. My female Pomchi is in heat but this began a more than a week prior to her coming in. It doesn't appear to cause discomfort but how can it not be uncomfortable?

Have used different bacterial drugs prescribed by the vet but the scrotum is becoming red and has red vein lines over it. What else am I suppose to use for quite k relief and recovery

Good Day!
Jun-ki is 3 months old male mix breed of boxer and labrador.
I Notice his penis is swelling, and after 3 days it got bigger swelling. ( He is in the middle of taking meds for anti bacterial, because he has would on his tail)
Although he still plays with his brother, and does not lose his appetite, I am worried about his genital, and may cause severity at the following days.
Help me on what should I do.

Thank you.
Best Regards,
Era

I have a four year old Caucasian and his scrotum is red and swollen to over four times its normal size. He's in great pain and can hardly move. He squeals and whines at the slightest touch and urine keeps trickling out of his penis almost involuntarily. Please help.

I am currently not in town for the 4th July and my dog is with Grandma and the testicle are swollen today and she peeled a scan and puss with water came out. Can this wait till Friday? Today is Wednesday.

My dog Benny is a two year old Chihuahua. Yesterday I noticed a small red mark on his testicles. I touched it and a few minutes later the mark was extremely red. Puss then came out of it. I cleaned the area and today I examined it. When I squeezed a massive amount of whitish puss came out. Like popping a pimple. He has no pain. Now there's a small hole. I've cleaned the area and he doesn't even notice. However I'm freaking out. Imagining all the things that can be going on. It's 2am and I have no answers. One more sign. The day before he was lifting his back leg when he walked. I had thought that maybe he had hurt his testicles. A hour before I noticed the red mark. We were in the car and he must have stepped on the seat warmer for the passenger seat. And he had been laying on that seat. So initially when the mark first opened I had thought it was like a blister. But today when I squeezed it very gently I might add and it gushed puss I have no idea what to think. This little being is an extension of my heart. So I'm pacing till morning.

My dog has been neutered for about 5 years. A couple of days ago he started scooting across the floor and licking his scrotum which has caused the skin to be very irritated and the area to be swollen. The vet prescribed him with Apoquel, and I have also been applying hydrocortisone to the area to help. In addition to the medicine he also has a cone on, but it seems he is still very itchy, his discomfort is very apparent. He has not lost any appetite and is not lethargic or acting differently than usual, with the exception of suddenly darting off to scratch himself. Any advice on what this could be would be greatly appreciated.

This whole incident started with Muttley vomiting once soon after he had his morning meal. After vomiting he was quite restless for a few hours, couldn't find a single spot to lay down or a single comfortable position.

Took him to the doctors but the vet couldn't identify a single problem and asked me to observe closely for a day or two. The next day I saw his testicles swollen. Rushed him to the vet and the doc said he probably got bit by something and advised we start antibiotics. He prescribed Cephalexin 500 MG for the infection & Prednisolone 5 MG for the swelling.

Summary - during this whole period he has vomited once, his testicles were swollen, he was very sensitive if got anywhere close to his testicles or if you touched him there so we assumed he was in pain and he had a little loss in appetite. By day 5 the swelling was down and it all felt like we were in the right path.

Soon after his antibiotics course on day 6 I took him to the vet for a follow up and his opinion. The doc agreed the swelling was down but couldn't locate a second testicle. On inspection we both couldn't locate the second testicle & the single testicle felt more oval in shape. Additionally one side of the testicles were still a little hard and other felt squishy almost like it was filled with liquid. On inspecting for another 5-7 minutes the doctor couldn't locate a second testicle. Muttley seemed to be a little sensitive the doctor got closer to the testicular canal. The doc suggested this could be because of the infection and recommended we wait for a month or two and have another checkup before we choose to cut into him.

3 days go by and again now his testicles are swollen again. Any information would be helpful. If you need more info please do let me know. I look forward to hearing from you.

A little background - at 6 months of age Muttley was diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia. We know he will any day now begin suffering with pain so we try to keep any form or surgery away for now so he is allowed a painful life as much as possible.

Maybe irrelevant but I would like to add - Recently 13 days prior to the swelling and vomiting incident Muttley had his anti-rabies shot, the second of the two Nobivac shots.

Hi my Dog is a nine year old lab and he has testicular swelling in one of his testicles. We did an echo test and were told that his heart capacity is less than 25% and so was adviced not to go ahead with the surgery. But as of late his testicle has enlarged even more and it continues to grow only from time to time. Each time the testicle grows (infrequent, sometimes within the span of three months sometimes days) he is fatigued and has a tendency to have fever too. Now we have used medication like laxis and K+ and the medicine had no effect on the swelling but the fever subsided and he is his usual self, except that he finds it uncomfortable to sit and lie down as he used to. Please let me know what could be the possible cause and probably treatment. Thank you.

We have 2 year old male labrador retriever dog, from last 15 days he wasn't well so we done blood test,in resultant we find that his hemoglobin is very low and his SGPT/ SGOT also not upto normal values so we consulted a veterinary doctors he advised that we should inject livogen & polibion injection on alternative days, & taxim 500mg, botropase injection twice a day,for four days plus vitamin k injection once
We have given these medications but after three day we noticed that the scrotum of our dog has been reddend and he is restless, so we applied betadine liquid on scrotum but that not worked & within a day scrotum developed pus on it, we again requested to same veterinarian so he suggested that we should inject gentamicin twice a day for four days and apply betnovate ointment on scrotum,since two days we are doing that also but nothing happened,

Both of my dog's testicles are very hard. He does not seem to be in any pain but it looks like he licks the area a lot. There are no other symptoms for him. He has been neutered already, probably 2 yrs ago. I was wondering what the problem may be.

I have a Male dog of 7 years...and his testicles are swollen it seems like he is in great pain and his testicular area (full backside both legs) are shivering. he also vomited and also there was blood in his poop. after taking to the vet his vomit and poop stopped but he is shivering and not eating anything.
i wanted to know what antibiotics will you recommend and is castration necassary?
can you tell me the treatment for his pain and swollen area?
i am worried.

My dog Zack has one testicle that is much much larger than the other, to the point where it looks like he only has one, i have only just noticed it and I’m not exactly sure what to do, i was walking my other dog and had slipped on moss and accidentally kicked Zack in that area, It wasn’t a hard kick since I caught myself before I fell, but I’m sure it may have done something and I’m really worried about this, I’ve been told just to watch him through the day, and if he’s still bad tomorrow take him to the vets, is this a good idea?

My dog experiences severe itchiness and discomfort in his testicles. It becomes red and also watery. We already went to the vet and he prescribed Dexamethasone and Amoxicillin for 6-8 days. However, my dog is crying non-stop. I have also tried using cold compress in his testicles but he wouldn't let me touch it. I have already used an e-collar or cone for him to avoid licking his testicles. What can I do to ease his pain and itchiness? I feel so sorry for him everytime he cries and I can't do anything.

His testicles are swollen and he not eating or active he sleeping and staying in bed

Today I looked at my puppies belly and I saw that one of his balls had a pink spot on them. He is only around 8 months old so I am very worried about him. Do I need to have it checked out? I am very worried about him. If he is walking around he constantly stops, sits down, and starts licking his balls. And he isn’t eating and drinking as often. Sometimes he has the same food for 3 days straight before I change it. With water it last maybe 2 days before it’s out. Please help!

Hi I have a 2 year old terrier mixed. I just recently took him to vet his right leg was swole and he had a cut on his scrotum. The vet prescribed him antibiotics but now his scrotum is swole and he is licking and can barely walk. What can I do to help ease his pain until I can get him to the vet? Why are the antibiotics the vet prescribed him not working?

My 1 year old Yorkie has swollen testicles. It just happened today. They are so swollen it looks like one big testicle. They are dark red and was a purpleish color earlier today. I have another dog (pit-bull) in heat and was wondering if that has anything to do with it? Maybe because he keeps trying to mate with her, but he can't. I have pictures but I don't see where to upload them.

Hello. Recently I was given a new dog food by a coworker. It was brand new but definitely cheap. I accepted his offer and fed the food to my dog later that night. The next day, I came home from work and proceeded to let my dog out of his crate (he isn't 100% house trained). He had thrown up/did diarrhea that covered the entire base of his crate. It was very liquidy with small bits of feces. He was standing in his filth because obviously he didn't want to sit in it. After letting him outside I decided to take him a bath and that's when I noticed his testes. They looked very very swollen. I thought that after some time, the swelling would go down and I assumed it was because they may have been submerged in his filth at one point throughout the day. Later in the day, he pooped out a small piece of feces but it was covered in blood with drops of blood surrounding it. We went to bed later that night and he appeared ok but I could tell he wasn't feeling himself. I left for work again and when I came back this afternoon, there was no feces or throw up. He appeared ok but his testes had swelled a lot in size with a large red spot on the bottom of the two. He is continuously licking them and the swelling hasn't stopped. I have put a cone on him to prevent him from licking anything for now. Do you know what may have caused all of this? Is it the change in food? And what does that have to do with his swollen testes and his bloody feces. I am going to try to take him to the vet tomorrow but do you think he will have to be neutered?

I have a maltese shitzu who will be 5 in a week amd he keeps licking his testicles and is going around in circles trying to get to them i have put a pamper on him and he keeps trying to take it off we had brought in another male dog and ge was trying to mate with hoim not due did ge is backed up or what what should I do

My dog has been licking his testes a lot lately and prefers to sit on ground. I'm saying noticed that his testes had what appears to be pimples one large one at the back of each side. Should I be concerned and take him to a vet?

My dog has been nutered for quite a long time time now and he has recently had a long mass show up on his stomach and where is testicles used to be. He is very hot in that one spot he is tired and won't play often like he used to.

Sam is my dog name and he has swollen testiculars and he is licking biting and scratching that area and laying on the cool kitchen floor cause there's no carpet in my kitchen

My dog's scrotum is red and he often will drag his body on the carpet in a way to scratch it and as a result, he will start bleeding. It's not necessarily swollen but it is red and it looks painful. What is wrong and what should I do to help him?

My 11 month Jack Russell/Beagle has a problem with one of his two testicles. Only a small portion of the tip becomes very swollen and enlarged. We have touched it to see if he has pain, and we believe only discomfort. The swelling goes away after he ejaculates or is inside after hot weather. Please help..

My dog was neutered several months ago, and everything was fine. He went to the groomer the other day and ever since he has been licking down there. Now, where his balls were is all swollen and red. Is this something that he can work out on his own, or does it sound like it's absolutely necessary to take him to vet?

My 4 week old puppy seemed to be swollen on his sides of his stomach. I know pups can seem to fat some times but I fliped him over to take a look and he has what to appears to be a large swollen testical also. What could cause this and is the swollen stomach sides associated with it? Not sure if he is in pain as hes 4 weeks old and when they all see me they cry like pups. They had to be taken way from mom at 3 weeks because she was eclaptic. They eat soft puppy food now. The testical is not red at all.

Hi, my dog’s testicles suddenly started increasing in size for about the last month. They've been gradually getting more red as they've gotten bigger. He winces almost every time he walks now and never runs when I let him outside. I know it probably sounds weird, but about 2 weeks ago I rubbed moisturizer on his sack because I figured the redness was from it chafing against his legs. I had to gently pull his testicles out behind his legs because there isn’t any more room and I used my other hand to rub in the moisturizer. It definitely helped because he stopped wincing for a couple days, but I don't want to keep doing it because of the time it takes and because they keep getting bigger and harder and I don't want to hurt him...Ugh! I really don't want to spend money at the vet but I know I probably don't have a choice. He’s a 3 year old pit bull. Any answers to what his problem might be would be really helpful and appreciated! Thanks,
-Lisa

Hi my dog has swelling going on in the inside the scrotum sack lining and dont what it could be. It grew from nickle/quater size last night to the size of one of his testicles today. I have a steady job so i dont have time to take him to a vet any recommendations.

My Pup last started to sit uncomfortable as if he was in pain... I examined him and noticed his scrotum was swollen and really red with small bumps... I cleaned him because he kept licking... and put a&d ointment and this morning the swelling has went down... but it still shows visible redness and bumps.. please help me should I take him to see his doctor or is there anything I could use to cure him myself....

My fathers dog has been to the vet multiple times over swollen testis, he does have a swollen prostate,and are having him fixed once the swelling goes down. It will decrease while on antibiotics, but as soon as they are up about the 4th day they start swelling (R is 2x the side of L) he has trouble getting up and down stairs. He eats normal, drinks a LOT of water and urinates and lot. When he first goes out the urine is thinker yellow color which after a few "markings" it lightens up. Everytime we go to the vet he gives him 2 weeks of antibiotics and tells us to come back for a follow up.

PlZ Help!!

My dog has swollen testicles

Hi. Took our little guy to the vet as he was struggling to walk and also noticed his testicles were swollen and hard. Vet did an x-ray of his spine, took bloods and prostate examination and we were told it's enlarged but not so much. We were meds for pain and also adviced to avoid operating due to his age. We now see that the testicles area secreting pus. We are abit concerned with this and do not know what to do.

We tried to neutured our dog by putting rubber band around his testicles but removing it after several hours because we think that he is suffering in too much pain. Ang now his scrotum is swelling and changed his behaviour. He seems sad and keep on licking his scrotum. What shall we do?

my dog has testicles been swollen for days now i've been told that the swelling will go down but over the days their has been no change he also lost his appetite,changes in behavour,and a great deal of pain

So my puppy has a small inflamed red area on his testicals he seems to be biting and liking the area a lot I try to keep him from biting all the time but I just noticed today, what could it be?

My dog has large red testicles and I'm not sure if it is testicular swelling because his penis is also read and swollen. I barely notice right now and he didn't have this problem earlier today so I'm not sure if it something that could have caused it. Anyway i justw antto know if you know or if you have an idea of what it could be and if It needs to be treated right away.

have a fair shih tzu 10 months old his testicles sack is brown just noticed this the other nighy after washing/drying him is this normal?

I have a dog who actually got neutered the a week ago on September 8th, and now its the 15th and his swelling has gotten more red, and his sack has actually increased dramatically in size and I don't know what to do! Is there a way I can treat it at home? If it gets really bad, I might have to surrender my pet and I can't afford any professional help for a while.

we have a doberman 8yrs old. from past 2-3yrs we have observed its scrotal skin automatically sheds like thin paper and it usually licks it which inturn causes minor blood stains at the scrotum and sometimes smells bad with wet stains on floor.
so we used to treat it by anti-biotics as a result it cures the skin but is there any specific problem which our dog is going through? and suggest me some permanent solution for the problem.

My 1yr old pup Opie is eating, drinking, and playing just fine, although he does seem a little bit withdrawn. He doesn't appear to be in pain. And his testicals aren't hard, but very red and inflamed on one side. He was in a fight earlier this week with our older dog. He's also scratching and biting himself a lot but not in his testical area. Could it just be from the fight or should we be more worried?

My dogs scrotum has swollen.
