What is the cause of the hard lump next to the testicle?

There are many common diseases of male testicles. When treating male testicular diseases, you cannot choose the treatment method at will. This will not help the treatment of male testicular diseases. To treat male testicles, you must first understand the disease. In this way, when treating, you will know what method to choose so that the disease can be controlled. So what is the matter with the lumps next to the testicles? Let me introduce it in detail below.

There is a hard lump next to the testicle:

1. Orchitis: Orchitis is one of the causes of testicular lumps. Orchitis is a common inflammation of the male reproductive system and one of the common causes of male infertility. Data show that testicular lumps often indicate that men suffer from orchitis. In daily life, many men know the importance of testicles. If the normal function of the testicles is damaged, the male reproductive function will be affected to varying degrees. For example, orchitis is the most common disease, which makes men suffer from pain and affects their sexual life, leaving them with a heavy psychological burden.

2. Epididymitis: There are lumps inside the testicles, which may be caused by inflammation of the epididymis. Since the epididymis is closely attached to the upper end and posterior edge of the testicle, it can be divided into three parts: head, body and tail. The head is formed by the winding of the efferent ductules, and the end of the efferent ductules is connected to an epididymal duct. The epididymal duct is about 5 meters long, and the winding forms the body and tail. The end of the tube turns sharply upward and directly continues to become the vas deferens.

3. It may also be a testicular tumor. Since testicular tumors have no clinical symptoms in the early stages, most patients will ignore them. The main clinical manifestation in the early stages is painless and gradual enlargement. A lump will appear in the testicle and continue to grow. Sometimes patients experience sudden pain due to bleeding and necrosis in the testicular tumor, or vascular embolism, accompanied by symptoms such as chills, fever, and redness. If the testicles are very itchy, it may be caused by orchitis or other factors.

After understanding what causes lumps next to the testicles, medication and surgery are good options for treating lumps next to the testicles. However, the choice of surgery should be based on the needs of the disease. This will not cause harm to the male body and will not cause other testicular diseases. Male patients should also pay attention to this.
