Patient's question:
There is a lump in the scrotal skin. I had epididymitis a few years ago, and this year I noticed it. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
It might be epididymitis, or it could be a localized infection in the testicles. However, if it's on the skin, the possibility of a localized infection is more likely to be considered. It's recommended to go to the hospital for a scrotal ultrasound to verify the condition. Pay attention to the lump and avoid touching the testicles with your hands. The condition tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's important to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital based on the examination results. Additionally, it's necessary to quit smoking and drinking, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
