My husband recently was bitten by a bug on his upper left thigh close to his testicles. Then shortly after the bite occured his testicles began to swell as well as some pain. can this be linked with the bug bite or no?

jesshall26,
If the bug bite was in the general vicinity of his testicles than it is possible that infection may have spread. Remember when we have bug bites we tend to scratch the hell out of the area, which may tend to move things around. I would suggest he pay a quick visit to the doctor or local clinic.
