Epidydymal cyst removal
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for contacting HCM with your medical concerns.
You have recently be diagnosed with an epididymis cyst from a prior trauma. This is also commonly found after having a vasectomy. These cysts are known to cause pain and discomfort which can radiate into the back and groin. This pain will interfere with your activities. It will come and go sometimes with no apparent reason. To help reduce the pain I do recommend taking a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen. I also recommend wearing tight underwear to give good support. Contact sports may also increase chance for pain. If the pain is bad enough then a surgical removal of the cyst maybe needed. From your description you maybe a candidate for removal. I recommend that you see a urologist for possible removal of the cyst.

Episodic pain
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for contacting HCM with your follow up question.
The pain from the cyst should probably gradually resolve on its own. Since this is something that is very infrequent then removal is not really required. If you wear the tighter underwear it will help support your testicle and reduce the pain. Also taking the Naprosyn will the pain. To have the pain resolve it may take 1-2 weeks.
These cysts are completely benign and do not require any real medical intervention. The only reason to have them removed is if the pain is persistent and severe enough that it impacts your lifestyle.
