Patient's question:
I did an MRI check, and it's like this: The bladder is well-filled, good, and the inner wall is smooth. The prostate size is 3.8 cm in left-right diameter, 3.6 cm in up-down diameter, and 2.0 cm in front-back diameter. The inner gland thickness is 1.2 cm. The right seminal vesicle size is 4.2x1.1 cm. The left seminal vesicle size is 3.5x1.1 cm. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
The head of the epididymis can be palpated as a round or oval mass, with a smooth surface, no tenderness, cystic consistency, clear boundaries with surrounding tissues, and no adhesions. Small, asymptomatic cysts can be monitored carefully without treatment, as they generally do not interfere with fertility. For more severe symptoms or larger cysts in unmarried individuals with children, surgical removal is a viable option. Epididymal conditions tend to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should actively seek diagnosis at professional and reputable hospitals and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Furthermore, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and maintain good personal hygiene.
