How is an epididymal cyst treated?

Patient's question:

I am a male, 28 years old, and have no bad habits. However, I was recently diagnosed with orchitis, and now I feel constant pain in my testicles, along with occasional high fever. I am really struggling with this. Could you please tell me how to treat Epididymal Cyst (left) and Epididymitis (right)?

Doctor's answer:

Epididymitis and hydrocele may be caused by inflammatory stimulation. After sufficient anti-inflammatory treatment, it is recommended to wait and see. If there are no obvious symptoms of swelling, fullness, and pain, surgical treatment is not necessary. However, if the cyst further decreases in size within a short period of time and accompanied by noticeable discomfort symptoms, surgery should be considered. For patients, if the condition of epididymal cyst is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and proper medication should be administered. Otherwise, the epididymal cyst may recur. In addition, patients should also pay attention to their diet and psychological care.
