Is hanging of testicles horizontaly in a relaxxed scrotum always means bell clapper deformity?

Not always unless you have experienced testicular pain with intermittent torsion.

No. Bell -clapper is a fashionable diagnosis after ultra sound and is mostly wrong. Wear a good support underwear and you will be fine.
