Lump On Testicle. Movable. Opinion?
Hey, I found a lump around 2 years ago on my right testicle on the side. I went to the doctors when I found it and he said he could feel nothing. Went a couple of weeks ago he said he could feel a cyst (which I knew of) but there is nothing that concerns him. Im going for an ultrasound next month. I can move the lump around but it feels like it is attached to my testicle in some way. Just want a second opinion

Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have what is called as Spermatocele.
This is a cystic swelling that contains sperms and attached to epididymis of the testicle.
This can be confirmed only on clinical examination and Ultrasound scanning of the scrotum.
Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical assessment .
Normally it does not require any treatment unless it is painful.
