Patient's question:
A hard lump has grown next to the testicles. It hurts when touched. Is it epididymitis? It's about the size of a thumbnail. Does it need to be surgically removed?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is highly likely that you may have epididymitis. Have you recently had a cold or any trauma to the penis or testicles?1. Rest more, try to stay in bed as much as possible, drink plenty of water, and pay attention to preventing colds, avoiding exposure to cold, and preventing prolonged sitting that may press on the testicles.
2. Focus on gathering a detailed medical history and seek advice through online consultations.
Testicles can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor, take medication appropriately, and follow a light diet. Avoid spicy foods, smoking, and drinking beer.
