Unhappy Unusual hamster testes

Hey guys this is quite a strange situation I have going on so I haven’t found much information on the internet about it. So my hamster, (Nugget, about 1.5 years old, long haired Syrian) has some strange discoloration around his genital area. I noticed it in the past around his testes, they’re almost never sticking out and they are partially a purple/black color. I never thought much of it but I got another look tonight and it looks worse like it’s spread up his body to what looks like his anus (not 100% on the anatomy). It doesn’t appear to be bothering him, he was just very upset when I was trying to restrain him to look at it haha I was thinking it could just be bruising because he does climb around in his cage and fall down but I wanted to make sure it wasn’t something worse

You could always take him to the vet just to make sure that it's nothing dangerous

If he's climbing his cage that could be a sign of stress because of a not big enough cage. how many square inches is you cage? You can measure the sq inches by measuring the length and the width of your cage and multiplying those 2 measurements.

Now, make sure you take him to the vet, its never a bad thing to go to the vets even if you think it isn't to serious, better be safe than sorry.

hope everything is okay xx
