What should I do if I find a testicular cyst during a hospital check-up?

Patient's question:

At the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor reviewed the photo results and found a testicular cyst. Except for a small amount of fluid accumulation, the doctor said there was no major issue and didn't prescribe any medication. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the careful examination results, it appears that you currently have mild hydrocele of the testis and epididymal cyst. From the examination results, the amount of hydrocele is very small and does not require special treatment. The epididymal cyst is also very small, so let's wait and see by closely monitoring. Testicular cysts can be resolved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
