There is a lump above the right testicle that is not hard, what should I do?

Patient's question:

There is a lump above the right testicle. It is not hard, soft and elastic, and it has not appeared recently; it has been there for many years. It does not cause pain or discomfort, and there are no complications. There is no sense of discomfort. At its largest, it is the size of a small egg and can be pushed away, for example, when lying down with legs crossed, but it comes back out when straining the abdomen, such as during a bowel movement. During masturbation, the semen is yellow.

Doctor's answer:

Your condition may be due to symptoms such as orchitis, epididymitis, tuberculosis of the testis, varicocele, etc.
Advice: It is recommended that you undergo a testicular ultrasound examination. Orchitis can be cured as long as timely, systematic, and effective treatment is provided after the condition is detected to prevent testicular damage. Additionally, men should pay attention to reproductive health and hygiene in daily life to prevent the occurrence of orchitis. It is advised to use antibiotics for anti-inflammatory purposes, rest in bed, elevate the scrotum, and apply local heat and physiotherapy.
