for some time i have had a small lump,
just a bit smaller than a pea on my left
testicle, on the underneath part. aprox
16 months ago, i went to a doctor and he
did a ultra scan and told me it was
nothing to worry about and that it was
probably a swollen or blocked epidermus
tube. the lump is still there, easy to
feel it after ive had a shower or bath.
has anyone else had this problem, what is
the epidermis tube and whats is its
purpose.
any info would be great.
thanks
mike

i had a similar problem. i found a lump
and went to the doctor. he said it was a
spermatocelle. my lump was in the
epidermis tube, i think. i forgot the name
he used. and what my lump was is a mass of
dead hardened sperm. he told me that it
will always be there but will cause no
problems. the tube he said is one of the
few places cancer does not get at. he got
me to do an ultrasound to be sure, and he
confirmed it. i think the tube im thinking
of and the one your describing are the
same thing. you might want a professional
opinion though. google spermatocelle for
more details.
