Ds is 10. He saw a surgeon about undescended testis as a toddler. But recently when bathing him ( he has severe needs). It looks like his testicle is inside his body or partially inside.

Did an econsult today and gp said he's been ok'd by surgeon previously so no issues.

Can they un-correct themselves? To me, it's constantly either inside or partly inside his body but it's really hard to say for sure.

It maybe that the testie moves up and down and a warm bath could be the ideal place for the testical to move into the groin. A retractile testicle, which moves between the scrotum and the groin and might be easily guided by hand into the scrotum. This is not abnormal and is due to a muscle reflex in the scrotum. Reference
