There is a small hard lump on the epididymis

Under normal circumstances, the male testicles feel soft and painless. But some people feel that there is a hard lump on the male testicles, and some people are very worried. The small lump on the male testicles is also called a small nodule. The causes of testicular nodules are mainly the following aspects. One is the epididymal cyst or the compulsory inflammatory nodule left after orchitis. Secondly, the male testicular epididymal cyst will also mainly manifest as a compulsory mass. In addition, male testicular tumors will also have compulsory masses. The details need to be confirmed by combining medical history, whether there are accompanying symptoms, and corresponding examination results. Let's take a look at it below:

1 Male testicular tumor A hard little lump in the male testicle is likely to be a male testicular tumor, and most of them are malignant. The clinical symptoms of male testicular tumor are enlarged testicular volume and hard color. During clinical medical examination, there is a feeling of holding a stone, no pain when pinched, and a feeling of falling. This kind of situation should be examined as soon as possible, and medication should be used after the cause of the disease is diagnosed. If it is good, no special treatment is needed, just regular follow-up will be enough. If it is malignant, surgery is required.

2. Men with orchitis and epididymitis may also experience discomfort such as testicular pain, swelling, and pain, and some patients may also have lumps. This condition generally requires anti-infective treatment.

3. Epididymal tuberculosis Men with epididymal tuberculosis may have hard lumps on their testicles that look like beads. This condition requires anti-tuberculosis treatment and surgical removal. Patients with varicose veins may also experience hard vascular knots on their testicles, which usually require surgical treatment.
