Urologist 's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query,
The painless lump just above the Epididymis is a benign cyst called Epididymal Cyst or Spermatocele.

It is benign and does not need any treatment .

Treatment is advised only when it increases in size or becomes painful.

You may consult qualified urologist for clinical examination once you are back to your home contry.

Hi I am Dr Fahim, General Surgeon
I welcome you to Healthcare magic and I will be looking into your query . . .

I have gone through your question and understood your concerns. It appears to be Epidydmal Cyst. Its a benign cystic accumulation of sperm that arises from the head of the epididymis.In your case only observation is needed at present, as it’s asymptomatic. Surgical intervention; which is excision of the cyst, is indicated for painful and enlarging Epididymal Cyst.

I hope my answer will help you. Do rate it, if you like it
Regards
