Is there a pimple on the epididymis related to epididymitis?

Patient's question:

Below the scrotum, a pimple slightly smaller than a grain of rice has grown on the epididymis. It seems to have been there for a while and is painless. Is it related to epididymitis?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you have noticed a rice-grain-sized lump on the epididymis. The most common condition in this case is an epididymal cyst. It is recommended to have a detailed color Doppler ultrasound examination of the testis and epididymis at a regular hospital for a clear diagnosis. The epididymitis can be resolved, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment during the treatment, use the medication appropriately, and the patient should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay more attention to personal hygiene.
