Dr B :

Hello, welcome to Justanswer, I will try to assist you with your medical question, and any medical information you seek

Dr B :

When did this start?

Customer :

Wednesday night

Dr B :

Did he have any trauma to the area?

Customer :

No

Customer :

He had a little brown stuff come out on the sheets

Dr B :

Has he seen a doctor or had any tests?

Customer :

no not yet.

Customer :

THis just happened. What could it be

Dr B :

Where did the brown stuff come from?

Dr B :

It could be an inguinal hernia that is strangulated, which would require him to get immediate treatment

Customer :

the penis I think, not pee, not watery brown. Not an urinary fection.

Customer :

should we go to the er

Dr B :

yes, right away

Customer :

why what will happen

Dr B :

He needs a scrotal ultrasound and a physical exam right away to diagnose him and treat him

Customer :

he says when he presses it it hurts

Customer :

it tender, he is not screaming

Dr B :

it may be an infection also, either way he needs prompt treatment

Dr B :

There is nothing you can do to treat him at home, that is why you need to go to an ER right away

BAscially it is enlarged, but we have antibiotics cipro should he get on that, should we go to the er now, if we wait what will happen
