What Causes Lump On Testicle?

When I was around 12 I unjured a testicle and developed a lump attaced to my testicle. I am now 56. I have a dull pain in my scrotum from time to time but believe this is due to my vascectomy. How often should I get this lump checked out?

Hi,Dear,Welcome with your query to HCM.
Studied your query in full depth of its details.Reviewed it in context of your health concerns.
Based On the facts, You mostly seem to suffer from-cyst of the epididymis testicle/ or it could be resolved hematoma post-trauma to the testes in tunic vaginalis./ or could be hematoma with funiculitis.
USG study would fix the diagnosis from other cause of such a lump on testicle after trauma.
Vasectomy related lump could also be there.
For your age recheck every year to check for the seminoma of testes. IF suspected -USG Of the testes would fix the cause.
This reply would reduce your scare, hope so.
This reply would help you to plan further treatment soon with your treating doctors.Best of Luck and early recovery.
Welcome any further query in this regard,which would be replied in next
session.
Good Day!!
