Patient's question:
Male, 16 years old. Four months ago, my testicles had a dull ache for a week due to external force. After the pain subsided, I could feel a small lump on the epididymis, which doesn't hurt but can be swayed when touched. Hello, is it inflammation caused by external force?Doctor's answer:
Currently, based on the description of your current condition, it is considered that the local swelling may be caused by testicular injury. It is currently recommended that you visit a hospital to undergo an MRI of the scrotum. If the MRI results are normal, it would not be a significant issue. If there is damage, appropriate treatment should be administered based on the actual situation. The condition of the epididymis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication treatment. Additionally, for male patients, it is important to actively seek diagnosis from professional and reputable hospitals.
