So It Felt Like My Left (your Right) Testicle Was
Question: So it felt like my left (your right) testicle was clinging a little tighter to my body than the right one and messing around with them I felt what appears to be a small painless lump on both testicles near the top outside of each. Almost feels like a little testicle attached to the actual one. Like the size of a small bean or something. Is this what they call the epidydimis? Like I said it doesnt hurt at all, but I never really noticed it before. Is it normal? Also, is it normal for the testicles to be somewhat sensitive. Like if I gently to moderately slap my scrotum and they feel a little tender (not badly) thats normal too right? Thank you...
Brief Answer:
Probably spermatocele which is a fluid-filled sac in the scrotum.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms seem to be related to spermatocele.
It is an epididymal cyst or a fluid-filled sac in the scrotum, usually above the testicle.
In my daily practice, I recommend an ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis.
Usually they go away on its own and don't require any treatment.
In case that you will feel pain you may take anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day.
Hope I have answered your query.
