Patient's question:
Two years ago, I had varicocele and had surgery. Recently, when touching my testicles, I noticed a small protrusion in the right testicle. It doesn't hurt, is rice grain-sized, grows on the testicle, and cannot move quickly. What is this disease? Could it be testicular cancer?Doctor's answer:
There may be a condition of epididymitis. My advice is to go to a regular hospital's urology department to understand the doctor's diagnosis and treatment. After diagnosing epididymitis, it is recommended to use antibiotics for systemic treatment combined with cold compress therapy. The testicles can be stabilized, but the treatment cycle is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to maintain good lifestyle habits and have a proper diet during the treatment period.
