Patient's question:
I have a small lump under the skin of my testicle, it's hard and painless. It's been there for about fifteen or sixteen years. It was very small originally, and in the past ten years or so, it hasn't changed much. Do I need to have it removed?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is likely a sebaceous adenoma or cyst composed of the skin layer, which is why it has been present for a long time with little change or slow growth. If you want to treat this condition, surgery to remove it is the only option. While there is a possibility of it becoming malignant, it is still recommended that you undergo surgery for treatment and removal. Testicular conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication treatment. For male patients, it is essential to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
