Patient's question:
A small nodule has grown on the epididymis, about the size of a grain of rice. What caused it? Is it a tumor?Doctor's answer:
It could be a small cyst in the epididymis, which is quite common. If there are no symptoms, there's no need to worry about it. You can have a color Doppler ultrasound done when you have time. If there are symptoms of pain or swelling, it's essential to have a thorough examination to check for inflammation! It's important to pay close attention to this. Epididymal conditions can be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it's crucial to actively seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it's important to abstain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
