No that is not a hernia. The testicles must be free to move back and forth. They have to be several degrees lower then body temperature to be healthy. When they are cold they will "get sucked up" this protects them. Don't worry everybody is different some hang low and some don't hang at all. A hernia is when the muscle underlining the skin becomes week and underlining tissue protrude, this can and is very painful. If you are still worried about it go and get checked out.

Stevo? I thought a hernia is when something tears and other things start falling through the hole? You can get abdominal hernias as well as testicle hernias- correct?
I wouldn't worry about it because if you had a hernia you'd be walking like a Neanderthal! ( major pain) The little guys like to go up for warmth and down for cooling! (nature's way)

That doesn't sound like a hernia. Some guys have scrotums that don't hang low, while others do.
Here's a link about hernias and an illustration if you want more information about them, including symptoms:

That's perfectly normal. Nothing to worry about and certainly not a hernia. The testes will move up when you are cold or for various other reasons (certain times during s*x for example). Sumo wrestlers can learn to retract theirs entirely into their bodies without doing any harm.

No, the little guys just want to get warm, that's all. If you had a hernia, you wouldn't be here asking about it... you would be pounding down the doctor's door in miserable pain.

If a ***** follows, or your cold then no, but if for no apparent reason, you might ask someone why, but I don't think that you have a hernia.

no its not at all and that only happens due to your body temperature...the hotter you are the furthur they hang, the colder you are the tighter they get....its just normal
