Patient's question:
I have a small lump in my left testicle, which has been there for more than a year. I once had an ultrasound done at the hospital, but there were no abnormal findings. However, I can still feel it with my hand. Is this a disease? Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
Hello! It might be epididymitis or a testicular cyst. You can go to the hospital for an ultrasound and other relevant tests. Generally, epididymitis causes testicular pain. Avoid wearing tight underwear and pay attention to personal hygiene. It could be that the epididymis is enlarged or other tissues, with the epididymis and spermatic cord, vas deferens, etc., still inside the scrotum. If you're not sure, go to the urology department of the hospital and have a doctor examine you. An ultrasound can determine if there's really a problem.
