lump on testicle.

Okay, i am 14 years old and about 6 months ago i told my mom about a lump attatched to my left testicle by this like string stuff and i had had it for about 3 years i was just embaressed to say anyting but then i told my mom and i went to the doctor and he shined a light on it and said it was a cyst and i got a ultrosound done and he said he wasnt to concerned about it, and that he would want me to come in and get another ultrosound done to see if it had grew any. well about a week ago i noticed i had another very small lump on my right testical and its not connected by string stuff really but its in the ssame spot my other one is on my left and i told my mom adn she called my doctor and he just went right ahead and made an apmt with an uraologist, and my mom asked if theres anything she should be worried about and he said hes pretty sure its nothing he just wants to send me to a specialist to just get it looked at becasue they know more and stuff but hes 99.9 % shure its alright. im just so scared and my apmt isnt untill monday and i was just wonder if anyone had any ideas what it could be. :(

Hello,
There is nothing much to worry about.Removal of the cyst is a day care procedure and is usually without complications.If the recently developed cyst is on the skin then surgical excision by traditional wide excision, minimal excision, and punch biopsy excision may be required.If it is inside the sacs,then excision and drainage may be required.
I hope it helps.Take care and regards.

Hey man, it sounds like you're ok. To put it one way: a cyst is just a lump that doesn't really hurt anything. Most cysts are like my money in my wife's pocket: they're gone as fast as they came. Other cysts are like spouses: some stick just long enough to drive you nuts and some just mooch off you for life.

I'm kidding of course- cysts are much less painful.  

You should be fine.
