What should I do if I have epididymal malformation?

Patient's question:

How is testicular torsion treated? Now I'm constantly overthinking, making this condition seem extremely frightening to me because I have no understanding of it. I feel anxious and can't eat or sleep. I hope for your help here, seeking detailed and professional guidance to clarify this condition. How should it be treated? What should I do if I have testicular torsion?

Doctor's answer:

If there are no discomfort symptoms, treatment may not be necessary. If there are discomfort symptoms and infertility is no longer an issue, surgical treatment can be performed. Epididymal abnormalities include structures such as epididymal agenesis, segmental self-locking, and epididymal cysts. Generally, there are no clinical diagnostic symptoms, and these abnormalities are often discovered during male infertility evaluations or during orchiopexy surgery. They are frequently associated with vas deferens abnormalities. Epididymal abnormalities do not require treatment if they do not affect fertility. For patients with epididymal conditions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If treatment is delayed, it may affect overall health. In daily life, it is important to pay attention to self-care and avoid spicy foods.
