Patient's question:
The left testicle has always been the same, only the right one will be affected, and it seems that the scrotum is uncomfortable every afternoon. It's normal in the morning and nothing can be felt. It has lasted for three months. It was more than ten days after my left hydrocele surgery that the right scrotum became uncomfortable and tender. A detailed ultrasound examination did not reveal any problems. I just want to ask if this is considered inflammation? How could the ultrasound not detect anything? It has been checked many times, and the result was directly normal, no disease. What happened with the left hydrocele before?Doctor's answer:
Based on a careful examination and speculation, the cause is believed to be an epididymal cyst. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not need to worry. Epididymal cysts are relatively common and mostly benign, including no need for any treatment. If they are larger, surgery can be performed to relieve the testicles, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is easy to relapse after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid sitting or riding for long periods and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
