Swollen testie

[marksmates]

Hi everyone been a few years since i've been on here but i've got a bearded dragon about 18 mths old now. I've just noticed he seems to have a swollen testie? Any advice? I'll ring the vet in the morning and get him in but was wondering if anyone new if there is anything that can be done to help him tonight.
Thanks heaps

That title brings a tear to my eye :shock: even just thinking about it :?

Has he damaged it on something? Would a cool bath be any help? (Him, not you)

Well they do not have traditional "Testis"(they are located inside the body) so I am thinking it may be a prolapse, post a pic and someone on here can tell you.

Swollen testes

Ooooh.... well.... that's news to me. It must be one of the glads then? Just behind the opening? Will get a pic

I don't believe there is any damage certainly not to look at on the outside.

Thanks guys

I may be an infection of the hemipenes, the best thing you can do is get him to a vet asap

Yeah but I thought you meant the swelling was behind the vent inside the base of the tail, not the body where the testicles are located.
