Brief Answer:
Epididymal Cysts are always Benign Cyst and do not require active treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .There is no USG report attached to your query .

Based on the facts that you have posted the pain that you have in Rt testicle is due to Epididymal Cyst .These cysts are always benign in nature and do not require any active treatment .

The treatment is advised only when it gets infected or increases in size suddenly.

Use scrotal support to prevent hanging and traction on testicles.

There is nothing to be worried about .

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
