Exclamation Syrian Hamster's testicle issue

I'm really concerned about my hamster, does anyone know what's wrong with him? He's coming up to 2 years old now, we've just come back from holiday after leaving him with a friend and we found this.image.jpg sorry that the image is blurry.

Hello djmagh and welcome to Hamster Central. Unfortunately, that need to be seen by a vet. It's hard to tell what it is, but if it is some type of infection he will need antibiotics and ,maybe, draining. Only a vet can tell you for sure what it is. I jope this little man is okay.

Agreeing with the above, seeking a Vet's advice is best. I hope all goes well, keep us updated!

I took Olly to the vets today, she said that he had an abscess but it burst. He's on antibiotics and because he's acting normally he should be fine

With the antibiotics Olly should be good as new in no time. Glad to hear he is doing well.
