What should I do if there is a small lump on the right testicle of the baby?

Patient's question:

A baby is 29 days old, and there is a small lump on the right testicle. It's more noticeable when the baby cries or urinates, but not visible when it's contracted. What should be done?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, on the outside, it cannot be ruled out that small bumps may have grown due to infectious inflammation. On the inside, it is generally considered to be a problem of a testicular cyst. It is recommended to take the child to a children's hospital for a thorough examination. After all, the child is quite young, and early and thorough examination will bring peace of mind, avoiding potential impact on later testicular growth and development or other issues. The testicles can be stable, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment.
