Patient's question:
I have a small, bean-sized red bump on my testicle, and it's just under the surface of the testicle's skin. It's been there for a long time. I didn't know about it 10 years ago, but now we want to have it removed. Will it cause any adverse effects? How should it be resolved?Doctor's answer:
It could be a sebaceous cyst. If there has been no change for 10 years, treatment may not be necessary. It is important to maintain local hygiene and minimize irritation. If there is a gradual shrinking trend, surgical removal can be considered. This type of surgery is relatively minor, and the cost is usually around 1,000 to 2,000 yuan. If there is no shrinking trend, it generally does not have any adverse effects.
