Should I Enquire About Removing The Epididymis?

I had surgery a few years ago for an epididymis cyst. Since surgery I have remained very sensitive in the area; almost like I have exposed nerves. It is painful to the touch and I have very sharp pain when I move. I have become very inactive and have gained weight. I'd like to be able to ride a bike again, take stairs, and run. Should I inquire about removing the epididymis?

HI.
To get to the cause - we have to get your ultrasonography done to decide the exact cause of the pain. IS it due to a nerve granuloma or epididymis or what .
Once the cause is found it is easy to decide which surgery can benefit you.
