Hello,
Welcome to HCM
I understand your concern.Cyst in the testicle may be due to varicocoele, hydrocoele or epididymal cyst.As you are telling that you have swelling from 10 years,it is most probably benign swelling.
As you are getting pain in the swelling,better to get it removed by means of surgery.Until then better to avoid lifting heavyweights.It can aggravate pain.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
Thank you
