General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi I am Dr Fahim, General Surgeon
I welcome you to Healthcare magic for health concerns and I will be looking into your query . . .

     I have gone through your question and understood your concerns. It appears to be Epidydmal Cyst but the black colour is something not fitting well in this diagnosis. You need to carry out an Ultrasound scrotum to give us insight into this swelling. If it comes out to an epididymal cyst, then 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
