A lump on each testicle
I was diagnosed with a cyst about 6 months ago on my left testicle, and i recently discovered another lump on my right testicle. I was supose to wait 6 months to get another ultrosound done to see if it had grew any, and now i have another small one on my other testicle and my mom made me an apmt with my doctor and he made me an apmt with a urologist, and my apmt is sometime next week. Alot of people have been telling my mom that it could be spermatocele including my regular Pediatrician, but he said hes no specalist but he dont think its anything to worry about. I was wondering what could it be and if it is spermatocele could i get a lump on each testical. the lumps are both in the same spot.
Well its inside my scrotum like its not on my sack or anything. Its attatched to my testicle.

Hello,
It depends on whether the cyst is on the skin or inside the testicles.If it is on the skin then it can be a sebaceous cyst and small punch biopsy or wide excision may be used to treat it.If it is inside the testicle then it can be a spermatocele. Spermatocele is a retention cyst of a tubule and is benign in nature.Usually they are left as such if not causing any symptom,but if they are causing pain,then they have to be removed.
I hope it helps.Take care and regards.
