Is there a small meat ball on the testicle?

There is a small fleshy ball on the male testicle, which may be an epididymal cyst. Epididymal cyst is caused by obstruction of the epididymal duct. Epididymal cyst is often more common in the bulbous part of the epididymal cyst. When an epididymal cyst occurs, the patient usually needs to go to the urology department for treatment. The diagnosis can usually be confirmed by scrotal color ultrasound examination. Simple epididymal cysts and small cysts usually have no clinical manifestations. Smaller cysts are likely to be absorbed independently and usually do not require treatment. For large epididymal cysts, surgical treatment can be used.

What to do if there is a small lump on the scrotum skin

The first thing to consider is the infection of the sebaceous cyst of the scrotal epithelium. Generally speaking, it is caused by the poor metabolism of the hair follicles in the scrotum. Generally, it can be completely cured by outpatient surgery. If it is not treated surgically, it is easy to cause infection and suppurative inflammation.

How to care for your penis

The male scrotum has the function of temperature regulation, just like a "central air conditioner" to adjust the temperature of the entire male reproductive organs, but also to maintain the happy growth of male sperm. However, it is worth reminding that in cold and humid weather, the "central air conditioner" also needs maintenance.

Male sex hormones require a very low temperature environment to produce sperm, so humans, like other mammals, have a "bag" outside the body - the scrotum, which provides a lower temperature for the testicles.

First, the scrotal skin is very sensitive to external temperature. It has no fat but abundant sebaceous glands, which is conducive to heat dissipation. Secondly, when the external temperature rises, the scrotal skin relaxes, expanding the total heat dissipation area, which is conducive to local heat dissipation. In addition, the aorta in the spermatic curve is coiled around the whole bundle of parallel veins, forming a reverse flow exchange system, and the veins continue to carry the heat from the arteries and veins in the abdomen.

The most ideal conversion and survival temperature of sperm is 1℃~2℃ lower than the normal body temperature (37.3℃). If the testicle temperature rises to 38℃, it will no longer be converted into sperm; if the temperature of perfect sperm rises to 40℃, the protein in it will coagulate and die, just like an egg being cooked.

Although the scrotum itself has the function of heat dissipation, when the scrotum is squeezed and shaped for a long time or the surrounding temperature is too high, it cannot keep the testicles and sperm at a suitable temperature. Therefore, cultivating a good lifestyle plays a particularly important role in the prevention and treatment of diseases.

First of all, you should try to avoid staying in a high temperature environment for too long. Putting a notebook on your knees, riding a bicycle or driving for a long time, sitting for a long time, etc., will cause the scrotal temperature to rise, so you should try to reduce it.

Secondly, you should keep your body dry and cool. Do not wear underwear or tights made of chemical fibers. Underwear should be loose, comfortable and breathable. It is best to wear pure cotton products. Remember to change them frequently and in time, especially after exercise. When you take a bath, you must clean the seams, but you should avoid using soap to clean acne.
