Patient's question:
Attached to the epididymis are hard lumps the size of green beans. Rubbing them can make them slightly softer. They have been there for several years, and sometimes they cause a bit of pain. What are the hard lumps the size of green beans on the epididymis?Doctor's answer:
This condition is generally caused by frequent dampness and irritation, poor personal hygiene, and excessive oil secretion, leading to localized small cysts. In this case, paying attention to personal hygiene, keeping the affected area dry at all times, washing with warm water every night, and applying Baishuang ointment can help recover completely. Epididymitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical treatment promptly, and treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking and maintain good personal hygiene.
