Is it a tumor if hard lumps appear on the testicles after prolonged masturbation?

Patient's question:

16-year-old, having long sexual intercourse, now there's a hard lump on the testicles, sometimes it hurts a bit, very sad, it must not be a tumor, right?

Doctor's answer:

Sex is an act that harms the body and spirit and should be restrained. Regarding abnormalities of the testicles, you can perform a self-examination. If both testicles are roughly the same size, it may be epididymitis. If only one side is affected, you can go to the hospital for an examination, such as an MRI. The testicles can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to maintain a healthy lifestyle and have a balanced diet during the treatment period.
