What should I do if a small lump appears on my testicle?

Patient's question:

I can feel a small lump on my testicles with my fingernail, and it's inside the scrotum. I went to the hospital, and the doctor couldn't feel it either. I then found another attending physician, and they also couldn't feel it. They told me to get a color Doppler ultrasound, but the ultrasound didn't reveal anything either. They said there was nothing wrong. But I can feel it with my hand? Is it possible that property can detect everything?

Doctor's answer:

If you can feel it with your hand, but other doctors cannot, and there are no abnormalities found in the MRI, it suggests that it should be normal tissue. The positive rate of MRI is very high; even small nodules or masses of a few millimeters can be detected. Therefore, in your case, there should be no major issues, and you don’t need to worry excessively. Testicular conditions can be prone to recurrence, requiring long-term oral medication. Additionally, for male patients, it’s important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Also, pay attention to controlling sexual activity and maintaining a positive mood.
