I had a minor injury almost a weak ago and my left testicle is now swollen twice the size as the right, the pain has died down a lot but the swelling hadn't receded yet. I've been taking ibprofin and avoid any rough activity so will this go down on its own? I don't have health insurance so is there anything I can do without seeing a doctor?

Hi Vargez,
You really SHOULD see your doctor. It's your testicle you're talking about.
Without knowing more we can only guess as to the cause. Most cases of orchitis (inflammation of the testes) are due to infection. That's not the case here. Yes, it can swell from an injury.
For all we know you could have testicular torsion and are about to lose your testicle.
Get to a doctor.
Good luck.
